A 22-year-old Brockton man was shot and killed at his home Wednesday night, according to Plymouth District Attorney Timothy J. Cruz’s office.
The fatal shooting of Romualdy Pierre-Charles “does not appear to be a random act of violence,” Cruz’s office said in a statement issued Thursday.
Brockton police were called to Pierre-Charles’s resident at 27 Vesey St. at about 11:51 p.m. for reports of shots fired, the statement said.
Responding officers found Pierre-Charles behind the home suffering from a gunshot wound. First responders pronounced him dead at the scene, the statement said.
The investigation by Brockton Police and Massachusetts State Police is active and ongoing.
According to published reports, Pierre-Charles was a 2019 graduate of Southeastern Regional Vocational Technical High School in Brockton.
