Nicholas R. Vassallo, 21, of Maple Glen, Pennsylvania, was shot and killed on October 5, 2015, in Manheim Township, Lancaster County during a drug deal that turned violent. A dispute over the money escalated into a physical altercation inside a car and Robert Peters IV, 18, fired multiple shots. Vassallo fell from the vehicle and died on the street.

Peters fled but was arrested and charged with third-degree murder, robbery, and gun offenses; he later pleaded guilty and received a 15 to 40 year state prison sentence. Three others — Kalina Green, 19, Matthew Brandisi, 27, and a 17-year-old boy — were also arrested and charged with conspiring to rob Vassallo and delivering counterfeit controlled substances. Vassallo’s family has spoken about their grief and the impact of his death.

Does anyone have information about Vassallo’s movements that day or knew him personally and can share details that might help clarify what happened?
