Eric Reyes, an 18-year-old from Vallejo, California, was killed on February 6, 2016, after a confrontation with the driver of another vehicle around 11:25 a.m. The two drivers engaged in a high-speed chase through a neighborhood that ended in front of Sac’s Hot Dogs, a busy area where pedestrians and Girl Scouts were selling cookies. The other driver opened fire, striking Reyes multiple times; a young girl riding in Reyes’ car was also shot but survived with non-life-threatening injuries.

Reyes was a 4.0 student who worked at Kohl’s; family and police have said he was not involved in gangs or drugs and that the shooting did not appear gang-related. Three days after the homicide, three young men were arrested following a high-speed chase; 19-year-old Jacob Rodriguez was later identified as the primary suspect and was charged with murder, assault with a deadly weapon, and attempted murder. Prosecutors’ case relied heavily on the description given by the female passenger in Reyes’ car, and the investigation has been hampered by few witnesses willing to testify.

Who remembers anything from that morning at Springs Road and Heartwood Avenue or saw the vehicles involved?
