The “deadliest act of violence” according to a report can be traced back on June 11, last month in the 1000 block of Paddington Place.   

Three victims were killed in the incident, disclosed by the names, Mario Mireles, 27, Christian Segovia, 25, and Nicholas Mireles, 55,   

The report says that there were three more people who were shot but they luckily survived, and three more were allegedly assaulted.  

As per the Star and Stripes report, prior to the incident, there was already an issue of national origin between the two families involved.  

But a parking dispute between Charles Smith’s mother and Mario was the root of the incident.  

Charles Smith’s mother reportedly called the authorities to complain about the blocked driveway during which a party was at large in their neighborhood.  

Charles Smith intervened and ended up shooting the three abovementioned people.
