Eugene, OR – The Eugene Police Department has arrested a suspect in connection with a fatal shooting that occurred on March 3 in the area of East 23rd Avenue and Willamette Street.

Eighteen-year-old Levi Rosenthal Eva of Eugene was taken into custody on April 16 by detectives with the Eugene Police Violent Crimes Unit. He is accused of killing 24-year-old Bryon Jivan Fitzgerald, also of Eugene.

Eva has been charged with multiple felony offenses, including murder, assault, robbery, and unlawful use of a weapon. He is currently being held at the Lane County Jail.

The charges stem from a shooting incident that involved individuals who were known to each other. At the time of the incident, officers responded to reports of a shooting in the area. One person was transported to the hospital but later died from their injuries.

As part of the investigation, detectives executed a search warrant at a residence in south Eugene on the day of Eva’s arrest. The investigation remains active.

Eugene Police are asking anyone with information related to the case to contact Detective T. Cooper at [email protected] or call 541-682-5187. The case reference number is 25-03498.
