Peter Cruz, 51, was shot and killed in the early morning hours of October 27, 2021, on the 3500 block of Central Avenue in the Castle neighborhood of San Diego. Police responded to a 911 call about a shooting at about 12:46 a.m. and found Cruz on the sidewalk with a gunshot wound to his upper body; he was taken to a hospital and died about 6:40 a.m.

Investigators say an argument between Cruz and another man, identified as 51-year-old Kenneth Corley, escalated and Corley produced a firearm and shot Cruz. Corley was arrested the next day, October 28, 2021, and booked into Central Jail on suspicion of murder; he was being held without bail while the homicide investigation continued. Authorities sought anyone with additional information to come forward.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who can add detail about what led to the argument that night?
