Lidio Alcantara, a 36-year-old man from Mexico, was killed in a drive-by shooting on September 1, 2019, in the 4900 block of Terry Street in East Dallas. The shooting happened just after 4 p.m. while Alcantara was inside the front room of a house; he was taken to a nearby hospital and later died. He had been sending money to his wife and child and was described as quiet and hardworking.

Investigators say a grayish Chevy Captiva, believed to be a 2012 model, drove past the house, briefly stopped, and then shots were fired. Authorities are seeking at least two suspects: the vehicle’s driver and a shooter seen in the back seat. Detective Jacob White said Alcantara was not the intended target and noted the house had been the site of another murder ten days earlier. Crime Stoppers is offering a reward and detectives say witness identities will be protected.

Did anyone in the neighborhood see that Captiva or have dashcam or surveillance footage from that afternoon?
