Joe Gonzalez, a 47-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed on October 18, 2017, outside his car stereo installation business at 2150 Opa-locka Boulevard in Opa-locka, Florida. He was working inside a car when two men who had been involved in an earlier argument about property returned, approached the vehicle and opened fire. Gonzalez was seated in the vehicle with his 20-year-old daughter, Gabrielle Gonzalez, and her one-year-old son; Gabrielle and the child were uninjured but witnessed the shooting. Joe Gonzalez was pronounced dead at the scene.

Miami-Dade Police detectives obtained surveillance footage showing the suspects approaching the vehicle and firing, and investigators say the suspects had interacted with Gonzalez shortly before the attack. Despite that evidence, the suspects remained unidentified and no arrests were made immediately after the incident. The family described Joe Gonzalez as a dedicated father of seven and a hardworking business owner; they have urged the public for help.

If anyone has information about the shooting or recognizes the men seen on surveillance, can you contact Miami-Dade Police?
