Augustin Martinez, a 48-year-old tow truck driver from Houston, Texas, was shot multiple times and killed on October 23, 2019, around 9 p.m. while giving a ride to a customer in an apartment complex parking lot. His passenger was wounded but survived. Martinez had taken a photo of his attacker immediately before the shooting; that image helped identify a suspect, 42-year-old Idelfonso Gamez Torres, who was later charged with murder and was linked to a red Ford Explorer seen at the scene. Authorities believed Torres might have fled to Mexico and urged anyone with information to come forward.

A vigil and a procession of tow trucks were organized in Martinez’s honor, and a GoFundMe was created to help cover funeral expenses. His daughter publicly expressed grief and frustration as the investigation continued. Does anyone have information about that October 2019 shooting or remember seeing a red Ford Explorer in the area that night?
