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.
