In my story, a homicide takes place. I want to describe this homicide at the start of the story, through the eyes of the victim, to foreshadow what's about to come. But victim and suspect are both unknown and unrelated to my protagonist. Should I put this homicide in chapter 1? Or is it wise to start chapter 1 with my protagonist, and describe the homicide in a later chapter (chapter 5 or so)?
