A dispute at a Phoenix establishment near 6100 North 27th Avenue in the early morning of May 9, 2021, ended with the death of 29-year-old Ruben Sekiseka. Phoenix officers answered a shooting call at about 1:37 a.m.; Sekiseka suffered a gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene after Phoenix Fire Department personnel responded.

Initial accounts were complicated by a false narrative from the armed security guard on duty, 34-year-old Serafin Chavez. Chavez escorted Sekiseka out after an altercation and at first told investigators Sekiseka had shot himself. Detectives later found evidence that contradicted that claim, including that Chavez had hidden the expended casing from his firearm before police arrived. Chavez was identified as the primary suspect and was arrested and booked on second-degree murder and tampering with evidence charges.

Who has information about Sekiseka, the establishment, or the events that night that could help clarify what happened?
