On the night of June 7, 2017, a verbal dispute at Mission Manor Park in Tucson escalated into gunfire. Twenty-six-year-old Guillermo Ortiz-Morales, a Hispanic male, was shot along with 20-year-old Roman Nieto; both men were found in the park’s western parking lot and died at the scene despite bystanders’ attempts at first aid. Witnesses had reported the shooting to police at about 10:15 p.m., and the shooter had fled before officers arrived.

Detectives determined multiple people were in the park during the incident and issued an appeal for witnesses. The suspect was described as a stocky Hispanic male who left in a dark-colored passenger car, possibly a Dodge or a Chrysler. Families publicly pleaded for help and a reward was offered, but no suspect has been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced.

If anyone was at Mission Manor Park that night or has information about the person who left in the dark passenger car, please come forward to assist the investigation.
