Leonardo Rodriguez, a 51-year-old resident of Garland, Texas, was fatally shot on December 10, 2018, just before 6:30 p.m. Officers responded to two separate gunshot wound calls minutes apart — one from a residence on Hillcrest Drive and a second from an apartment complex on South Jupiter Road. Rodriguez was located at the apartment complex and later died at a local hospital.

Garland Police treat the death as a murder and believe both victims were shot at the South Jupiter Road apartment complex. An 18-year-old male, David Alexis Cardiel, was arrested soon after on charges of Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon and Tampering with Evidence; detectives are considering him a possible suspect. The investigation remains ongoing and the department has offered up to a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Garland Police Department or Garland Crime Stoppers.
