In the aftermath of the shooting, the Philadelphia Police Department launched an
investigation to identify and apprehend the suspect or suspects involved in Victor Morales's death. Despite efforts to gather information and leads, the case remained unsolved for several months. However, in December 2015, authorities arrested 30-year-old Victor Morales of Allentown, Pennsylvania, on unrelated gun charges. He was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, stemming from an incident on June 12, 2015, where he was found in possession of a loaded. 40 caliber semi-automatic pistol. It is important to note that this individual is not connected to the homicide of the 18-year-old Victor Morales in Philadelphia.
