Roland Martinez, 45, died on October 31, 2019, in Boca Raton, Florida, after being shot multiple times the afternoon of September 30, 2019, outside the Southeast Collision Center on the 2500 block of Northwest First Avenue. Martinez had met 44-year-old tow truck driver Raed Hamdan to discuss a payment dispute. The argument escalated and Hamdan shot Martinez; Martinez was critically injured, remained in hospice care, and later died.

Hamdan claimed he acted in self-defense, but surveillance footage showed Martinez at least two feet from Hamdan’s car when shots were fired. After the shooting Hamdan made a phone call and changed his shirt instead of attempting to help. Hamdan was arrested the day of the shooting on an attempted-murder charge; after Martinez’s death the charge was upgraded to murder, and a judge set bail at $250,000 with conditions including house arrest and surrendering passport and weapons if released. A GoFundMe was created to help cover Martinez’s medical and funeral expenses.

Does anyone have information about the dispute or the events outside the Southeast Collision Center that afternoon?
