José Wilian Galdámez, a 40-year-old Salvadoran man born February 8, 1984, was fatally shot on October 20, 2024, in an agricultural area near Southwest 240th Street and Naranja Road in Homestead, Florida. Authorities say the shooting involved an altercation among three people over a dispute about a parked vehicle. José and another man, 53-year-old Juan Miguel Menjívar, were each shot multiple times as they tried to flee.

Police identified 35-year-old Eric Jose Garcia as the suspect; investigators allege he chased the two men, shot them, then called 911 admitting the shooting and saying he intended to execute them both. Garcia was arrested and charged with two counts of second-degree murder and held at Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center. Another person reportedly fled the scene before officers arrived.

Jose’s family has opened a fundraiser to cover funeral costs; his wife, Hilda Diego, is caring for their three children. Can anyone with information about the shooting or who witnessed events near Southwest 240th Street and Naranja Road on October 20 come forward?
