Ramon Monie Herrera Jr., 44, was shot to death on September 23, 2015, in Salinas, California. Born April 21, 1971, Ramon was a father of four and remembered in his community for a vibrant personality and strong loyalty to friends and family. His death left a large gap for those who knew him.

Herrera was killed during an altercation in Salinas Chinatown. The same man accused in connection with a string of violent crimes that summer was identified as the shooter; that assailant had previously been linked to other killings and attempted murders in the area and was located after a prolonged standoff with police. Surveillance footage and other evidence were reported as part of the case against him.

Anyone who knew Ramon, his routines, or who has information about the events that day is asked to come forward.
