Dominic Carboni, of Shwenksville, had arranged to meet Skyler Fox, 17, to buy marijuana when he shot him and 18-year-old Brandon Bacote-Byer near Fourth and Johnson streets around 11:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 17, Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin R. Steele said.

Surveillance footage shows maroon-colored Ford pick-up truck fleeing the area after the incident — the same color and model as a Ford F-150 truck owned by Carboni's father, Steele said. Carboni had been seen driving the truck earlier in the evening, authorities said.
Responding officers found numerous fired cartridge casings, a projectile and a Taurus G3 9 mm handgun with an obliterated serial number at the scene, the DA said.
Police did not recover a backpack from the scene, however, a witness told police that they saw Fox with a backpack on his shoulder as he crawled away from his vehicle. Minutes later, the backpack was gone and Fox was no longer moving, according to Steele.
