Daniel Antonio Mergil, 27, was found in his vehicle after a crash on the 5900 block of Ameen Drive in Northeast El Paso on April 29, 2023, at about 3:11 a.m. He had sustained a gunshot wound and died at a hospital. Investigators believe the shooting happened nearer the 6100 block of Ameen Drive, by a U-Haul storage facility.

Surveillance captured a black four-door sedan with chrome rims and possibly chrome door handles fleeing the area around the time of the incident; that vehicle is considered connected to the murder. As of December 2024 no arrests had been made and the suspect or suspects remain unidentified. The El Paso Police Department’s Crimes Against Persons Unit is investigating and Crime Stoppers of El Paso is offering a cash reward for tips.

Mergil’s wife and young daughter have spoken publicly about his death, describing him as kind-hearted and charismatic and urging anyone with information to come forward. If readers knew Daniel or saw a black four-door sedan near Ameen Drive that night, can you help with information?
