Michael David Ramos, 33, was killed August 31, 2021, in Salinas, California. Ramos and 30-year-old Amanda Nicole Ferrell were standing outside a residence on East Bernal Drive near Maryal Drive when a silver sedan approached. Occupants of the vehicle asked Ramos where he was from and then two people in the car opened fire, striking both Ramos and Ferrell multiple times. Ramos died at the scene; Ferrell was taken to a hospital and later died.

Salinas Police investigators collected surveillance and witness statements to trace the vehicle. Detectives identified and arrested the driver, David Delgado Jimenez, on September 2, 2021. Subsequent arrests included Yohani Nevarez Mendez, a juvenile male, and Mario Alexander Rodriguez; Mendez and the juvenile were charged with two counts of murder and Rodriguez was later charged as well. Authorities said the suspects were Norteños gang members who had been driving through what they believed was rival Sureno territory looking for a target. Ramos and Ferrell had no gang affiliations and were described as unintended victims of the attack.
