Juan Francisco Rosario, a 31-year-old Hispanic man from Richfield, was shot and killed on the evening of July 29, 2013, on a South Minneapolis sidewalk. Police responded about 6:30 p.m. to reports of gunfire on 43rd Street East between 4th and 5th Avenues South and found Rosario with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to Hennepin County Medical Center and died about an hour later; the medical examiner ruled the death a homicide.

Witnesses told investigators the shots came from a vehicle that then fled the scene near Eddy’s Barber Shop, and police recovered multiple shell casings. Investigators have said they believe Rosario was the intended target rather than a random victim. Despite interviews and public appeals, no arrests have been made and the case is now cold, leaving the family and neighbors without answers.

If anyone knew Rosario, saw activity around Eddy’s Barber Shop that evening, or has information that could help, please come forward.
