Jonathan Lopez, 24, was shot and killed the evening of March 16, 2015, near Piney Branch Road and Dale Drive in Silver Spring, Maryland. He was found conscious but collapsed on the sidewalk with a gunshot wound, taken to a Washington, D.C., trauma center, and died in the early hours of March 17. The shooting followed a personal dispute linked to a love triangle. Lopez had accompanied his girlfriend to the home of 24-year-old Erick Ramirez to pick up her child.

While Lopez waited in the car, he and Ramirez exchanged antagonistic text messages. After leaving, Lopez returned with a friend to confront Ramirez; a man in dark clothing confronted Lopez, produced a handgun, shot him, and fled on foot. Detectives identified Ramirez as the primary suspect, obtained a first-degree murder warrant, and officers arrested Ramirez in Washington, D.C., on March 17 pending extradition.

If anyone has information about the confrontation that night or the man in dark clothing, please share it.
