Aaron Cruz, 42, a Hispanic/Latino man, was found fatally shot before dawn on August 30, 2025, inside a camping-style trailer at a fenced storage lot in the 2000 block of Sunset Avenue in San Diego’s Nestor neighborhood. Officers were called for reports of gunfire around 3:25 to 3:30 a.m. A second man, Richard Hartung, 64, was found dead in a separate trailer on the same property; both men lived in those campers.

Detectives canvassed the area and used city-owned and private security cameras to identify a red Chevrolet Suburban as a suspect vehicle. On September 2 a 24-year-old, David Verduzco Kruglova, was arrested after a traffic stop and booked on two counts of murder. A 16-year-old male from Tijuana was taken into custody on September 5; his name was not released because of his age. On September 12 a 22-year-old identified in coverage as Marco Ramirez or Marco Ramos Ramirez was arrested and investigators recovered two assault rifles believed to have been used in the killings.

The investigations linked the early-morning gunfire to three alleged participants and the red Suburban. Anyone with information about the shootings is asked to contact the Homicide Unit or Crime Stoppers. Does anyone have information about activity near the storage lots on the night of August 29–30?
