On the evening of October 28, 2024, 30-year-old Andres Garcia was fatally shot inside his home on Sophia Street in Muskegon, Michigan. The Muskegon Police Department responded to reports of gunfire and found Garcia gravely wounded; he died while en route to the hospital despite life-saving efforts at the scene. Reports describe him as a beloved son, cherished brother and dear uncle, remembered by friends and family as a stand up guy.

Investigators indicated the shooting did not appear random. In November 2024, the Muskegon Police Department announced arrests of two men linked to the case: 44-year-old Robert Pompey Jr. of Lakewood Club and 36-year-old Benjamin Fields of Muskegon Heights. Both were charged with open murder and the investigation remained ongoing.

If anyone knew Andres, witnessed activity in the Sophia Street area that night, or has information that could help, please come forward to the authorities.
