Jordy Ramon Lopez, 23, was killed in a drive-by shooting in the Linda Vista neighborhood of San Diego on October 15, 2016. At about 4 a.m. he was walking in the 2200 block of Comstock Street when a vehicle approached, an occupant threw a beer bottle, then opened fire. Lopez was struck in the upper body, was conscious when first responders arrived, but died about 8 a.m. at a local hospital.

The San Diego Police Department opened a homicide investigation. Witnesses later said the shooter retrieved a .40-caliber handgun from an apartment and fired at Lopez while he walked with a friend. DNA from a shell casing at the scene and other evidence were later linked to Orlando Javier Sanchez, who was arrested in December 2017 and convicted of first-degree murder in April 2019. Body-worn camera footage shown at trial included Lopez identifying his assailants before he died.
