Jake Reynosa, 18, was shot and killed in the Victory Park neighborhood of Dallas on July 14, 2024. Officers found him lying in the street near North Houston Street and Nowitzki Way about 5:15 a.m.; he was taken to a hospital and later died of his wounds.

Police say Reynosa and three companions were walking when a maroon sedan pulled up. Two teenage girls got out and spoke with Reynosa, asking to exchange Instagram information and to borrow his phone. Two males who had been dropped off nearby then approached; Isaiah Simmons, 18, chased Reynosa and shot him in the back near Houston and Nowitzki Way. Officers report the suspects fled in the sedan, which had been stolen in an earlier aggravated robbery and carjacking, and that the group had been driving around looking for people to rob, with an earlier attempted robbery in Victory Park that same day.

In the days after the shooting police arrested and charged the two teenage girls, 15 and 16, with capital murder; Simmons and 19-year-old Christopher Gaines Jr. were later arrested and charged with capital murder, and 19-year-old Latraveone Wherry was taken into custody on August 6 and charged with capital murder. Reynosa’s family and the community have been left grieving.

Did anyone see the group in Victory Park that morning or have information about the incidents described?
