Baby Reyes was one of 21 people killed on July 18, 1984, during the San Ysidro McDonald’s massacre in San Ysidro, California. The infant, identified as Carlos in family references, died in the arms of his mother, Jackie Wright Reyes, who was 18 and was killed while shielding her niece. The gunman, James Huberty, entered the restaurant armed with multiple firearms and shot indiscriminately; he was shot and killed by a police sniper after the attack lasted 77 minutes.

No other suspects were involved; the shooter died at the scene. The massacre prompted lawsuits by victims’ families against McDonald’s Corporation alleging inadequate security, and it spurred wider discussion about law enforcement tactics, gun policy, and public safety. Does anyone have memories of Jackie, Carlos, or the families affected who can add to the record?
