Carlos Ramiro Venegas, 40, was fatally shot on August 2, 2019, in the 1200 block of Barlow Street in Bakersfield, California. The shooting followed an altercation described as gang-related that involved gang hand gestures; another man at the scene suffered moderate injuries and Venegas was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

Investigators recovered a spent .380 caliber shell casing at the scene whose DNA matched Israel Chuca, a 22-year-old member of the Colonia Bakers who was on probation at the time. Video surveillance showed a man exit an SUV and fire multiple shots. Chuca later admitted to the shooting, saying he acted after the hand gestures, and a jury convicted him of murder and attempted murder in February 2022; he was sentenced to life without parole in April 2022.

Was anyone in the neighborhood watching surveillance or have additional information about the confrontation on Barlow Street on August 2, 2019?
