Richard E. Hodakievic, 69, was fatally shot on November 20, 2023, at a bus stop in Glendale, Arizona. A retired U.S. Navy veteran described as quiet and gentle, Hodakievic had lived in the Phoenix area for about five years and enjoyed staying in shape; he was also remembered as a good student and a singer in his youth. Jaquey James, 24, was also killed at the scene. Authorities described the shooting as a random act and said neither victim had a known connection to the shooter.

Police say they identified and apprehended 26-year-old Dominic Celaya after witnesses provided accounts of the incident. Officers located Celaya with the help of a police canine after he ran into a nearby apartment complex; a handgun was recovered from his backpack. Celaya was booked on two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of unlawful discharge of a firearm. He denied firing a gun and said he had no memory of the incident.

If anyone was at that bus stop or saw people leaving the area just before the shooting, please share what was seen.
