David Anaya, 53, of Tulare, California, was shot and killed on April 5, 2025. Multiple 911 calls about gunfire directed officers to the 900 block of South K Street, where they found Anaya with gunshot wounds. He was taken to a local hospital but died from his injuries.

Investigators identified 32-year-old Raymond Ramirez of Farmersville as the suspect. Ramirez was arrested and booked into the Tulare County South Detention Facility after evidence collected at the scene tied him to the shooting. The investigation remains active as authorities continue to examine the circumstances.

Records also show a David Matthew Anaya, age 50 and listed as from Tulare, had prior arrests for offenses including possession of controlled substance paraphernalia, kidnapping, disobeying a domestic relations court order, vandalism, trespassing, and resisting law enforcement; it is not clear whether those matters relate to this death.

Anyone with information about the shooting or who was in the area of South K Street on April 5 is asked to come forward.
