The suspects and Castillo appear to get into a physical altercation, where Castillo is attacked and stabbed multiple times. Castillo then runs away, eventually collapsing near a business along University Way Northeast and Northeast 47th Street.
Despite efforts to save Castillo's life, he later died at the hospital.
The suspects are described as two lightskin Hispanic or Black men. One was wearing light colored ripped jeans, a black puffer, and a chain with a gold emblem. The other suspect was wearing cargo-style jeans, a shiny black puffer jacket with a possible tear on the back left, and black gloves with a white finger bone design. He was also riding a dark bicycle with thin tires and a larger stem.
