On September 17, 2018, Marco Antonio Hernandez, 28, was shot and killed during a dispute over money inside a vehicle at the intersection of Priest Drive and Baseline Road in Tempe, Arizona. The shot was fired by another passenger; the shooter fled on foot after the attack. Hernandez was taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries and died shortly after arrival.

Tempe Police identified 24-year-old Matthew Joshua Uriarte as the suspected shooter and described the argument over money as the motive. A search treated Uriarte as armed and dangerous and ended on September 28, 2018, when he was located and arrested by Tempe Police and the U.S. Marshals Violent Offender Task Force. Uriarte was booked into the Tempe City Jail on a charge of second-degree murder in Hernandez’s death.

If anyone saw the vehicle or the scene at Priest Drive and Baseline Road on September 17, or has information about the dispute, please share what is known.
