Fabian Alvarado, 19, of Salinas, California, was shot in Greenfield on the evening of Wednesday, July 30, 2014, around 7:40 p.m. He died two days later in a San Jose hospital. The Greenfield Police Department, led by Chief Adele Frese, described the shooting as believed to be gang-related and opened a thorough investigation.

Investigators identified two primary suspects: 22-year-old Ernesto Ochoa and 19-year-old Juan Manuel Tapia, both described as known gang members. Ochoa was arrested in Guanajuato, Mexico, by the U.S. Marshals Service with Mexican authorities and processed for extradition to the United States. Tapia was reported as at large and considered armed and dangerous, with police asking the public for help locating him.

What information might help locate Juan Manuel Tapia or clarify the events that led to Fabian Alvarado’s killing?
