Luis Fernando Escobar, a 24-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed on October 2, 2020, in El Paso, Texas. The shooting occurred about 2:30 a.m. on Interstate 10 near Piedras Street after an argument that began at a downtown bar continued while Escobar and two others were driving away.

Escobar was sitting in the back seat when Mario Medina Jr., 23, who had been seated in the front passenger seat, turned around and shot him. Medina’s father, who had driven the group to try to de-escalate the dispute, was injured while attempting to take the gun from his son. Escobar was found dead inside the vehicle when police arrived; Medina was arrested at the scene and later booked into the El Paso County Detention Facility with bond set at $1.5 million.

Reports say the argument stemmed from something Escobar had said to a bartender and continued in the car. The shooting closed part of Interstate 10 for several hours during the investigation. Does anyone have information about Escobar, the night’s events, or witnesses who were in the area that morning?
