Daniel M Martinez Jr, 25, was fatally shot on July 3, 2010, in San Bernardino, California. A Colton resident born in 1984, he is survived by his fiancée Daniella Chavez, daughter Yesenia Martinez, and son Daniel C. Martinez. Reports say he was struck multiple times in the shooting; the San Bernardino Police Department opened an investigation but faced obstacles such as few witnesses and limited forensic leads.

The community held vigils and memorials as family and friends pushed for answers. The initial investigation struggled to develop concrete evidence, which hampered early progress.
