Juan Reynaga, a 17-year-old student and varsity football player at Anaheim High School, was killed in a gang-related drive-by shooting on July 8, 2022. He was walking home from his night shift at Walmart around 9:45 p.m. on the 1100 block of Acacia Street, just south of Romneya Drive, when a vehicle with two people inside approached and opened fire. Juan was taken to a hospital, underwent surgery, and died shortly before 11 p.m. that night.

According to the Anaheim Police Department, Juan had no gang affiliations and was an innocent bystander. He had recently received the keys to his late father’s white 2007 Chevrolet Colorado from his older brother Gabriel Reynaga, planned to become a certified crane operator after graduation, and worked to maintain good grades while supporting his family. No arrests have been made and the suspects remain at large. A memorial near the scene and a GoFundMe for funeral expenses were created by the community.

Did anyone in the area that night see the vehicle or people involved, or have information about the shooting?
