Lucio Martinez, a 33-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed on February 15, 2015, at a Westside home in Jacksonville during a barbecue. An argument between Martinez and another man escalated and the other man drew a handgun, shooting Martinez multiple times in the stomach around 4 p.m.; Martinez died at the scene and no ambulance was called.

The person arrested at the scene was identified as Jacobo Brinoes-Anaya, also 33, a co-worker Martinez had brought from Texas for a job and a ride. Family members said tensions had grown between them over Brinoes-Anaya’s reported drug and alcohol problems. Brinoes-Anaya fled in a vehicle after the shooting but was taken into custody shortly afterward and charged with murder, held without bond.

Martinez was described by relatives as a hardworking father and the youngest of twelve children; a memorial was set up at the family home and a fundraising campaign began to help with funeral expenses. If anyone attended that barbecue or knew more about the relationship between Martinez and Brinoes-Anaya, please share what was seen or heard.
