Jose Alberto Ramirez Lopez was 21 when he was shot to death in Salinas on June 15, 2018. The shooting happened in the 400 block of Carol Drive after Lopez was approached by multiple people and a physical altercation broke out; at least one person then opened fire, killing him.

The Salinas Police Department has been investigating and asking the public for help identifying the suspects, providing contact information for its Investigations Bureau and anonymous tip lines. It remains unclear whether the killing was gang-related, as no definitive links have been established. No arrests or significant breakthroughs have been reported and investigators say limited witness cooperation and a lack of concrete evidence have hampered the case.

Does anyone who lived near Carol Drive on June 15, 2018, or who may have witnessed activity that night, have information that could help identify those involved?
