Orlando Miret Jr., a 26-year-old Hispanic man known as Water Boy, was fatally shot on the morning of April 19, 2017, in Miami. Neighbors heard multiple gunshots and later found his black Honda crashed into a light pole on Southwest 27th Lane near Southwest 37th Avenue; he was pronounced dead at the scene with his body still inside the car. Home surveillance footage reportedly shows a man standing in the road firing several shots at Miret’s vehicle.

Friends and family remembered him as friendly and full of life and held a candlelit vigil at the crash site. The Miami Police Department opened a homicide investigation but, as of the posting date, no arrests have been made and the shooter’s identity remains unknown. A reward of up to $3,000 has been offered for information leading to an arrest.

If anyone witnessed the shooting, saw the car before or after the crash, or has other information that could help identify the shooter, please contact Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers.
