Young boxer’s murder featured in the SAPD’s new For the Record video

Isaac and his friend were walking in the area of 2300 W. Saint Gertrude Place when a vehicle stopped and gunned them down. Isaac sustained numerous gunshot wounds and ultimately succumbed to his injuries. Just before his life was taken away, Isaac was on a path of a promising boxing career.
