Cesar Sanchez was 17 when he was fatally shot in the early hours of November 26, 2023, at Henry M. Jackson Park in Everett, Washington. Witnesses near the park reported multiple gunshots; a nearby couple said they heard four shots and saw about six people running and shooting. Officers found Sanchez in a covered area with gunshot wounds and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Detectives have said they believe Cesar and the person or people who shot him were acquainted, but no motive or relationship details have been released. Multiple vehicles reportedly fled the area before police arrived, and as of late 2023 no arrests or suspect descriptions had been announced. Cesar’s mother, Clementina Rubio Ruiz, described him as a loving son who had recently started a higher-paying job, planned to finish high school online, and hoped to train as an electrician at Sno-Isle Tech Skills Center.

Does anyone who knew Cesar or who was near Henry M. Jackson Park that morning have information that could help the investigation?
