Omar Daniel Garcia, 26, was shot and killed on October 15, 2023, in the 1400 block of Roosevelt Avenue in Yakima, Washington. Officers responding to reports of gunfire found Garcia with multiple gunshot wounds; he ran to a nearby apartment for help but was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities describe the incident as gang-related and say an argument between Garcia and another man preceded the shooting.

Investigators identified two suspects. Twenty-two-year-old Ruben Marin was arrested and is believed to be the person who fired the shots; he faces charges including second-degree murder, drive-by shooting, and unlawful possession of a firearm. Nineteen-year-old Blayze Christopher Choquette was also taken into custody and is charged with drive-by shooting and first-degree rendering criminal assistance; detectives say Choquette allegedly drove Marin to the scene and that several people were in the vehicle.

Are there witnesses or anyone with information about what led to the argument or who else was in that vehicle?
