Matthew Tucker, 22, was shot to death on Mother's Day, May 10, 2015, at a mobile home park on Olive Avenue near Herman Street in Atwater. He was found late that night with gunshot wounds to his chest and foot and died at Mercy Medical Center in Merced. Family and friends described him as a loving father and cherished member of the community.

Investigators treated the case as a homicide and looked into a possible gang connection; the family disputed that characterization. Officers said the suspects were believed to have been on bicycles, and the Atwater Police Department conducted numerous interviews and increased patrols while continuing the investigation in the months after the shooting. A memorial and vigils were held at the scene.

Does anyone who knew Matthew or who was in that area that night have information that could help the investigation?
