Victor Daniel Ruiz Reyes, a 30-year-old Hispanic man from Glendale, Arizona, was killed in the early morning hours of December 17, 2022, after gunfire broke out at a large house party near 67th Avenue in the area of Bethany Home Road and West Rose Lane. Witnesses told investigators an argument involving Ruiz Reyes and at least one other person escalated into gunfire; Glendale’s gunshot-detection system and multiple 911 calls reported numerous shots just after 1 a.m. Responding officers found evidence of a sizable gathering and located Ruiz Reyes unresponsive in the backyard of a home in the 6500 block of West Rose Lane. He was taken to a nearby valley hospital and pronounced dead.

Family and his partner, Angie Sanchez, described him as a hardworking father of three, with the youngest about a year and a half old at the time. Neighbors initially mistook the shots for fireworks and some provided home surveillance footage that investigators have used to reconstruct the scene; police say the shooter or shooters fled before officers arrived and that additional witnesses have not yet come forward. No suspect name or arrest has been publicly announced.

Did anyone at the party or nearby see vehicles or people leaving the scene that night who have not yet contacted police?
