Damian Bryan Quinones, a 46-year-old Hispanic man and a father of five, was killed in Tucson, Arizona, the night of July 17, 2024. Just after 11 p.m. he was at a Circle K convenience store at 7510 E. 22nd Street when a verbal dispute with another man, 24-year-old Martin Cruz Garcia, escalated into a physical fight inside the store. The two men moved outside and the argument continued, and Garcia produced a firearm and shot Quinones.

Tucson Police and Fire paramedics administered life-saving measures but Quinones died at the scene. Garcia fled but was later located at a nearby home; he surrendered and was taken into custody and arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder, held on $1,000,000 bond. The victim’s family has been identified as suffering losses described as physical, emotional, and financial; Quinones is remembered as a loving father of five.

If anyone was at the Circle K that night or saw events around East 22nd Street and South Kolb Road, please come forward with what was seen or heard.
