Edgar Cruz Macedo, a 26-year-old Hispanic man, was fatally shot in the head on March 1, 2014, at Club Zota De Oro, a nightclub in South Austin. The shooting followed a confrontation in the restroom involving Macedo, his ex-brother-in-law Arturo Torres, and two other men. Torres intervened, produced a handgun, and during a struggle the weapon discharged, killing Macedo.

All men involved fled the scene. Authorities identified Arturo Torres, then described as about six feet tall, 180 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, as the primary suspect. Investigators believe Torres left the area and may have gone to Mexico; the Lone Star Fugitive Task Force has been working to locate him but he remains at large.

Macedo’s mother, Petra Macedo, has publicly pressed for answers and for contact with her grandson, the 10-year-old son Macedo shared with Torres’ sister. The family says the child is their last connection to Edgar. If anyone has information about Arturo Torres’ whereabouts or the events at Club Zota De Oro that night, please come forward.
