Peter Morales was a 17-year-old resident of Oxnard, California, who was shot and killed around 10:45 p.m. on September 14, 2019. He died of a gunshot wound to the chest. The Oxnard Police Department led an extensive investigation into the killing.

By December 18, 2019, investigators arrested 21-year-old Jose Manuel Dimas in Oregon and brought him back to Ventura County on charges of murder and special circumstances alleging the killing was for the benefit of a criminal street gang; Dimas pleaded not guilty at arraignment. A second suspect, 25-year-old Victor Andrew Aguiar, already jailed on unrelated charges including attempted murder from an incident on September 3, 2019, was charged on March 10, 2020, with first-degree murder and gang-related special allegations and was held without bail.

Multiple Oxnard Police units and federal partners assisted in the probe, and the City of Oxnard offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to arrest and conviction in homicide cases. Does anyone in Oxnard have information about Peter Morales or that night that could help complete the picture?
