Due to the extent of bodily harm caused, the district attorney explained that the case would be treated seriously as the evidence shows a clear intent to kill.

A state trooper discovered the victim's body after seeing a parked Subaru belonging to one of the culprits with its blinkers on. A second vehicle was later found close by, containing a knife and blood.

The trooper found 17-year-old Joshua lying on the ground with blood-stained shoes, and shortly after, he was joined by Anthony. The duo had tried to clean up the scene with sanitizing wipes.

After thorough observation, the trooper investigated the brothers, and it was discovered that Joshua purchased the sanitizing wipes from a 7-11 in Richlandtown around the corner.

It is yet to be determined if the murder happened there and how long the body had stayed before being found. The police and emergency personnel are investigating the case.
