Dylan Nicholas Garay, 25, of Los Banos, California, was shot and killed on May 31, 2020, after an altercation at a gas station escalated into a pursuit and shooting. Garay was driving a Dodge Durango when a Honda Civic chased him westbound on Pacheco Boulevard. The Civic’s passenger, identified as Robert Luis Vazquez, fired into Garay’s vehicle; Garay lost control, drove into a nearby field, and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police identified and arrested two primary suspects: Robert Luis Vazquez, 23, of Los Banos, and Samantha Alexis Garcia, 22, of Dos Palos. Both were charged with murder and were held in custody with bail set at $1 million each. Witnesses reported seeing the Civic chase the Durango out of the gas station parking lot, and investigators tied the shooting to an argument that began at the gas station.

Anyone who witnessed the events at the gas station or the chase on Pacheco Boulevard is asked to come forward with information.
