Angel Torres, 28, was fatally shot in Yuma, Arizona, in the early morning hours of December 29, 2019. The shooting occurred on 14th Avenue between 9th Place and 10th Street; 37-year-old Monico Rico was also killed in the same incident. A 911 caller reported hearing a man crying for help followed by seven gunshots and saw a black truck leave the area, though police have not confirmed a link for that vehicle.

Both victims were found on the ground and received emergency care from the Yuma Fire Department before being taken to Yuma Regional Medical Center, where they were pronounced dead. The Yuma Police Department opened a double murder investigation, memorials were placed at the scene, and Torres’s family set up a Go Fund Me for funeral costs. Authorities are urging anyone with information to contact investigators and may allow anonymous tips.

If anyone knew Angel Torres or Monico Rico or saw activity in that neighborhood before or after the shooting, can you share what you remember with investigators?
