Upon arrival, officers found Frantz with an apparent gunshot wound. He died on scene.
Frantz was standing in line to order food when he was shot in the head with a semi-automatic pistol.
Authorities found Marshall sitting outside the restaurant, without any clothes on, and with his hands in the air.
Employees and witnesses told authorities that Marshall was the shooter.
A judge ordered Marshall to submit a psychological evaluation in April 2025, and he was found competent to stand trial, according to our media partner.
Marshall was initially charged with two counts of murder and one count of felonious assault. However, the bailiff told WBNS that one of the charges was changed to involuntary manslaughter.
