Milton Rodriguez, 24, of Edinburg, Texas, was shot and killed on October 7, 2021. He was found in the 2000 block of Mojave Avenue with a gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene. Milton was a father of two, had recently reunited with his first love, Chasidy Gomez, who was pregnant, and was remembered for his lively personality and devotion to family.

Authorities say Miguel Angel Mujica, 36, with known gang ties, was arrested shortly after the incident and described as armed and dangerous. Investigators allege Miguel and his cousin Elizabeth Saenz Mujica conspired in the homicide: Elizabeth is accused of buying the weapon, driving Miguel to the scene, and assisting his escape. Both were indicted on murder charges and faced substantial bond amounts.

Milton’s family and friends recall him as caring and high-spirited. Does anyone who knew Milton or who was in the Mojave Avenue area on October 7, 2021, have information that could help fill in what happened that night?
