Maryland teen killed on Puerto Rico beach while on vacation

A Maryland teenager who was vacationing in Puerto Rico was killed on an Isla Verde beach near the Casa Cuba club, according to police on the island.

A teenager from Maryland who was vacationing in Puerto Rico was murdered on July 1 on a beach.

The Puerto Rico Police Bureau said the teenager was murdered on an Isla Verde beach near the Casa Cuba club on July 1 after an altercation broke out.

According to FOX 5, Carlos Aníbal Rosado Martínez, who police consider a suspect, turned himself in on Friday morning in connection to the shooting.

The teenager was identified as Tommy Grays III, who was a rising junior at James Hubert Blake High School in Montgomery, Maryland.

The high school sent out a letter to students and staff describing the teenager as "extremely loving, thoughtful, and funny." 

Grays' father told NBC Washington that his son is being viewed as a villain by some people in Puerto Rico.

"My boy was an innocent kid with not a single violent bone in his body," Tommy Grays said. "He had never been in a physical fight a day in his life and he lost his life, and it’s being said he was being violent. Makes no sense."

According to the father, Tommy Grays, the argument involved a different family member and ended when Martínez allegedly grabbed a gun.

"My son had actually stopped the situation happening," Tommy Grays said. "He then walked back to the beach and was in the water with his stepfather when the guy came running back up with the gun shooting at them."
