Roberto Cardenas, 44, was shot and killed on May 19, 2019, in Opa-locka, Florida. Surveillance footage reportedly captured Churches approaching Cardenas’ car and firing the fatal shot, after which Cardenas’ family fled the scene.

Churches fled but was located the next day in Miami Gardens. When officers confronted him he allegedly brandished a rifle and a handgun and opened fire; police returned fire, and Churches was killed. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement opened an inquiry into the police-involved shooting. Witnesses and family members described shock and trauma after the killings. Does anyone have information about Cardenas’ life in Opa-locka or recollections of that day that could add context?
