Ricardo De Lara was 22 when he was shot and killed at his Kissimmee home around midnight on May 16, 2020. Neighbors called police after hearing gunfire; officers found Ricardo dead inside. The sliding back doors were shattered and the front door riddled with bullets, and investigators say multiple shots were fired through a door and a window.

Police have not identified a suspect. Surveillance footage from the neighborhood that night shows a man walking through the area who has been described as a person of interest, but no motive has been established and no arrests have been announced. Ricardo, known as Ricky, was the youngest of three siblings, a Valencia College student and a music blogger; his family remembers him for gaming with his nephew, traveling and cooking with his niece.

The family has created the Supreme Scholars Foundation Scholarship in his honor and continues to hold memorials while seeking answers. If anyone saw anything in the neighborhood that night or recognizes the person in the footage, contact investigators with information.
