Daniel Maldonado, 21, was one of two men killed in a mass shooting at La Mejor Taqueria on Story Road in East San Jose on January 5, 2017. The shooting happened about 7:45 p.m. when unidentified suspects entered the restaurant and opened fire on three men who were dining; a third victim survived and was taken to hospital. Hugo Sanchez, 31, of Sunnyvale, was the other person killed.

The San Jose Police Department launched a multiagency investigation. By November 3, 2017, U.S. Marshals and the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office in Florida arrested Edgar Ramos Sanchez at a residence in Dade, Florida, and Raul Torres Madriz was later booked into Santa Clara County Main Jail on felony murder charges. The victims’ families sought justice while the surviving victim recovered.

Anyone who was in or near La Mejor Taqueria that night or who has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
