Israel Zerquera, a 58-year-old Miami resident who used a wheelchair, was shot and killed on the morning of August 26, 2014. According to witnesses, a man exited a vehicle at the I-95 exit ramp at NW 95th Street, approached Zerquera and opened fire without provocation. The motive remains unclear; the killing was described in reports as a senseless act that shocked the community.

The suspect, identified as Rodney Louis, fled in a gold Chevy Malibu. Police issued an advisory for the vehicle and an undercover burglary task force later spotted a car matching the description. Louis allegedly refused to stop, led officers on a high-speed chase and crashed near Miami Gardens Drive, where he was taken into custody. Authorities reported finding a stolen .40 caliber Glock handgun on him, and charges included first-degree murder, grand theft and fleeing and eluding police.

Anyone who knew Israel Zerquera or witnessed the events at the I-95 exit ramp on August 26, 2014 is asked to come forward with information.
