Raul Lito F. Castro, a 41-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed during an altercation at Famous Sam’s restaurant on Tucson’s west side on the evening of May 16, 2014. He was remembered by family and friends as a devoted father, son, and friend who loved sports, music and laughter, and his death left the community reeling.

Police opened an immediate investigation into the shooting. In the days afterward a man voluntarily surrendered to Tucson police and was identified as connected to the deadly shooting; details of any confession or the specific charges were part of the ongoing legal process. An obituary published by the family noted a different date of passing, reflecting the confusion and grief that followed the tragedy.

If anyone was at Famous Sam’s that night or knew Raul Castro and can help clarify what happened, please share information with Tucson authorities.
