A dispute among housemates in Shelbyville, Tennessee, on the afternoon of October 11, 2020, ended with fatal gunfire. Juan Diego Frias Gutierrez, a male resident of a home on Lower Halls Mill Road, was shot multiple times and died in his front yard. Another man at the scene, Jose Angel Osuna Mendez, suffered critical gunshot wounds to his chest and arm.

Investigators identified two residents of the house as suspects. Twenty-nine-year-old Juan Antonio Lopez Juarez, who had recently moved to Shelbyville, was arrested in Franklin in a joint operation by the Bedford County Sheriff’s Office, Williamson County deputies, and Franklin police. He was charged with homicide and attempted homicide and held at the Bedford County Jail without bond. The second suspect, Rolando Esquivel Garcia, fled and remained at large in the days after the shooting.

Language barriers complicated early interviews and investigators continued working to reconstruct what led to the violence. If anyone knew Juan Diego Frias Gutierrez, Jose Angel Osuna Mendez, or the people living at that Lower Halls Mill Road address, what information can be shared with authorities?
