On the afternoon of May 3, 2025, a 911 open, silent line prompted deputies to a location near West Wall Lane and South Somerton Avenue in Yuma, Arizona, where they found two men with apparent gunshot wounds. Forty-eight-year-old Jose Guevara of Somerton and 52-year-old Jose Martinez of Yuma were both pronounced dead at the scene. A third male, not publicly identified, transported himself to a nearby clinic and was reported in stable condition.

The Yuma County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Bureau has classified the incident as a homicide and is investigating. No suspects have been taken into custody and no motive has been released. Guevara, known as Paps, is remembered by family and friends as generous, humorous, and skilled with his hands — a devoted son, loving brother, and supportive friend whose loss is keenly felt in the community.

Did anyone in the area on May 3 see or hear anything that could help investigators?
