The family moved to Philadelphia two years ago with hopes of saving up and buying a house somewhere safer.
His mother, Maria Balbuna, is unsure why her son left school early, why she wasn't notified, and ultimately why her son's life was senselessly taken.
"As a mother I just need to know what happened. I need this closure for me. We didn't come here for this. We didn't come here for this," Balbuna said."I need to know why. What did he do? What did he do to be killed like this and left in the street like garbage?" His family says Robles-Corona was the oldest of four children, a responsible son who looked after his brothers and worked with his mom at Auntie Anne's pretzels on weekends, saving up to buy a vending machine and help out with family bills.
