On the night of March 21, 2015, Phoenix police found Hector Silvain, a Hispanic/Latino man from Phoenix, lying in the street near 13th Avenue and Mountain View Road with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to a hospital but pronounced dead a short time later. Officers determined Silvain rented a room in an apartment at that complex and had been staying in a bedroom within the unit of a man who was the primary leaseholder.

Detectives identified 40-year-old George Minter as the suspect; reports say Minter admitted to shooting Silvain and turned over a Kimber .45-caliber pistol believed to be the weapon. Minter was arrested days later and booked on a second-degree murder charge with bond set at $1 million.

Does anyone have further details about Silvain’s life, the apartment, or witnesses who were in that complex that night?
