Miguel Angel Chairez was 22 when he was shot dead on a quiet stretch of southwest Oklahoma City in the early hours of January 5, 2007. His white Pontiac Grand Am had run out of gas near SW 36 and Pennsylvania Avenue; a young woman sat in the passenger seat while Chairez stepped out to call for help. A dark four-door vehicle pulled alongside, and the driver asked about gang affiliation before opening fire. Chairez was struck multiple times and found dead beside the Pontiac at about 1:50 a.m.; the female passenger was uninjured and provided the only immediate eyewitness account.

Investigators recovered shell casings at the scene and used the woman’s account and the dark sedan description as leads, but the shooter drove away and was not publicly identified in connection with the killing. There is no accessible report of an arrest or resolution in this case. Does anyone with information about that night, the vehicle, or the person who stopped to offer — or pretend to offer — help have tips for investigators?
