Pedro Galvan, a 26-year-old Hispanic/Latino man, was working alone overnight at the Mobil station at Mill Avenue and Broadway Road in Tempe when he was killed in the early hours of March 23, 1995. A customer found him sprawled on the floor of the cashier booth at about 1:52 a.m.; he had been shot at close range in the side of the head with a shotgun. The register had been emptied and the last recorded sale was at 1:24 a.m., placing the robbery and killing in a narrow window before the discovery.

Investigators believed Galvan may have opened the booth door to work on a car radio he had been repairing and been ambushed while outside; no signs of a struggle were reported. Police linked the killing to a violent string of robberies across the Phoenix area that same night in which two cashiers were shot in the head with a shotgun and witnesses described the suspects fleeing in a small late-model red four-door car. Two suspects in their 20s were sought and police released a composite sketch of the suspected gunman.

Mobil and the Arizona Petroleum Marketers Association offered a combined reward of $12,500 for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Does anyone have information about the two men or remember seeing a small red four-door car in the area that night?
