Juan Correa was a 37-year-old Hispanic man from Dallas who was killed on April 11, 2017, after being struck by a stray bullet during a robbery in the Pleasant Grove neighborhood. He was standing across the street from his home when a group of teenagers robbed a man getting out of his truck on Nisqually Street; the robbery victim ran toward his house and one of the robbers fired, and the bullet hit Correa.

Police identified four teenagers as involved: Tradareon Choice, 18; Shemar McCarthy, 17; Joshua Valdez, 17; and Ira Wheeler, 18. Authorities determined Choice pulled the trigger and Valdez was the getaway driver; McCarthy and Wheeler were with them. All four were arrested and charged with murder, and in February 2019 Choice received a life sentence for his role.

Correa left a wife of 15 years and three children, the youngest being one year old at the time. Family and friends described him as a loving family man who enjoyed spending time with his children and riding his horse. Anyone with information about the case or who knew Juan is urged to come forward.
