Rodrigo Renteria Bravo, 34, was found fatally shot in the early morning hours of August 24, 2024, in Birmingham, Alabama. Officers discovered him around 2:40 a.m. in the parking lot of an Exxon at 1100 block of 3rd Avenue West after a ShotSpotter alert recorded multiple rounds nearby. The gas station was closed; the El Centenario Nightclub across the street was open.

The Birmingham Police Department opened a homicide investigation and canvassed the area for surveillance and witnesses. Detectives have not publicly identified any suspects or a motive, and have considered that Bravo may have known his assailant, though that remains unconfirmed.

Family and friends described him as hardworking and caring. Anyone with information about the shooting or who was in the area that night is asked to come forward.
