Oscar Herrera, a 38-year-old Hispanic man from Opa-locka, Florida, was killed in a drive-by shooting on February 14, 2019, at about 4 p.m. on Jann Avenue near the Miami-Opa-locka Executive Airport. He was working on a vehicle in front of his home with a friend, Esteban Garcia, when a light-colored vehicle drove by and its occupants opened fire. Herrera was pronounced dead at the scene; Garcia was airlifted to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Ryder Trauma Center in stable condition.

Investigators have said the shooting may have been a case of mistaken identity. Herrera’s family and neighbors described him as a friendly, hardworking construction worker who was married and had a young son. No arrests have been announced and the Miami-Dade Police Department continues to investigate; authorities have asked anyone with information to contact CrimeStoppers.

If anyone knew Oscar, saw activity on Jann Avenue that afternoon, or has information about the light-colored vehicle or its occupants, please come forward.
