A robbery spree on the morning of February 7, 2024, ended with the death of 40-year-old Marvin Ramos-Hernandez. He was working at Lindo Amanecer Restaurant and Market on Broad Rock Boulevard in Southside Richmond when he was shot; officers found him with a gunshot wound and he was pronounced dead at the scene. That day two suspects reportedly carried out multiple robberies at Latino-owned businesses along the same corridor, with an earlier incident at a business in the 2200 block involving a shot fired and cash taken.

Richmond Police say they used camera footage and license plate reader data to locate the SUV used in the spree and arrested 25-year-old Jonathan Beltran and 18-year-old Ronald T. Monterosso within about 45 minutes. Reports note both men had prior contacts with the justice system; Beltran faced pending firearm and narcotics arrests from February 2023, and Monterosso had active warrants from Chesterfield County. Marvin Ramos-Hernandez is remembered as a father of two and a familiar, friendly presence at the restaurant where he worked for more than a decade.

Did anyone who knew Marvin or saw activity on Broad Rock Boulevard that morning notice anything that could help investigators?
