, CBS2's Jenna DeAngelis reported Monday. "His smile, when he walked into a room, it lit up the whole world. He was so great," said Kayla Capellan, his sister.
According to police, the men involved left a club and apparently had words over a dirty look. Capellan allegedly pulled out his weapon and pistol whipped another man. The gun discharged and that man was grazed in the head by a bullet. Then, cops arrived. "Officers repeatedly stated 'Drop the gun,' said Adams."My heart goes out to the family members of the young man that's involved and my heart goes out to the police officers."
Rodriguez said her son was a good person and turning his life around, which was echoed by those who gathered at a memorial for Capellan.
