Jacob Edward Luna, 23, was fatally shot while sitting in a parked vehicle at an apartment complex in the 700 block of East Pastime Road in central Tucson in the early morning hours of December 12, 2017. Responding officers arrived after multiple 911 calls about shots fired and found Luna with obvious gunshot trauma; he was pulled from the car and given emergency care but was pronounced dead at the scene shortly afterward.

Tucson Police Department detectives from the Gang Unit led the investigation because Luna had gang affiliations, though authorities said it remained unclear whether the shooting was directly gang-related. Investigators processed the scene, canvassed the neighborhood for witnesses and surveillance, and sought leads. In 2018 the 88-CRIME program offered a $5,500 reward, including funds from an anonymous donor, for information leading to an arrest.

The case remains unsolved with no suspects publicly identified or in custody and no arrests announced. If anyone saw activity near East Pastime Road around 12:45 a.m. on December 12, 2017, or has information about this shooting, please contact 88-CRIME or local authorities.
