Serreno Foster, an 18-year-old male of African American ethnicity, tragically lost his life on December 12, 2020, in Cincinnati, OH. He was found shot inside his still-running car on Canyon Drive, and despite immediate medical attention, he was pronounced dead at the scene. The circumstances surrounding his death remained unclear for nearly two years, with his family and community members calling for answers and justice.

In February 2023, Cincinnati police announced a breakthrough in the case. They identified Eric Johnson Jr., a 19-year-old male, as the perpetrator responsible for Serreno's death. Johnson had also taken the lives of his mother, 38-year-old Darlene Flores, and his 16-year-old brother, Rodrigo Johnson, in an apparent murder-suicide at their home on Canyon Drive. Police linked Johnson to Serreno's murder through a suicide note found at the scene.

The Foster family expressed relief and gratitude upon learning of the resolution, stating that justice had been served for Serreno. The case closure brought some solace to the family, who had been tirelessly seeking answers since the tragic incident.
