He was struck and died at the scene in front of a Chevron station; the county medical examiner ruled the death a homicide.

County records initially listed the victim as Anthony Martines, a spelling echoed in early local reports. A family fundraising page described his passing as sudden and violent and noted he was known by the nickname Dopey.
