Annasue ’Annie’ Rocha, 19, was killed while working at Martin’s Supermarket on East Jackson Boulevard in Elkhart, Indiana on January 27, 2025. The shooting occurred at about 5:45 p.m. when a lone gunman, identified as 54-year-old Juan M. Sanchez, who had recently moved to the area from Illinois, opened fire after an interaction at the self-checkout where Rocha was working.

Witnesses said Sanchez grabbed Rocha’s wrist and displayed a gun. A customer alerted a manager, allowing Rocha to step away briefly, but Sanchez then shot her and returned to shoot her multiple more times. He also fired toward the manager and fleeing patrons, killing 49-year-old customer Benjamin S. Jeffrey. Two Elkhart officers, Corporal Paul Vandenburg and Patrolman Ethan Pasternak, were injured when Sanchez fired at them; the officers shot and fatally wounded Sanchez at the scene. The Elkhart County Homicide Unit investigated and later ruled the officers’ use of deadly force justified. Rocha’s mother told investigators her daughter had been harassed by a man at the store before the attack; it is unknown if that person was Sanchez.

Did anyone who shopped or worked at that Martin’s Supermarket recognize Sanchez or remember unusual behavior by him before January 27?
