A road rage confrontation in Phoenix on Sunday, June 29, 2014, ended with 24-year-old Luis Gaona dead. Gaona, a Hispanic male, was driving with his girlfriend when a near-collision led both drivers to pull into a convenience store parking lot. Words were exchanged and the other driver, identified as Josue Vergara-Soto, reportedly retrieved a handgun and opened fire, striking Gaona.

Gaona was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries and later died. The Phoenix Police Department investigated the shooting as a homicide. Authorities identified Vergara-Soto as the primary suspect, located him, and took him into custody; he was arrested and faced charges connected to Gaona’s death.

If anyone witnessed the confrontation in that parking lot or has information about the events leading up to it, please share what is known.
