Josue D. Alonzo Jr. was 20 when he was shot dead in Des Moines on the night of April 27, 2018. A recent East High School graduate, new husband and father, Alonzo worked as a delivery driver and was described by family and friends as outgoing and devoted to his wife, Yeimi, and daughter, Esmeralda Layla. He was also known by the nicknames Josuélito, Lito, and Josh.

Police found Alonzo at about 10:20 p.m. at East 30th Street and Garfield Avenue with gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Detectives asked the public about a late-model, four-door red compact car seen nearby that reportedly had a broken or missing rear driver-side window and black wheels or missing hubcaps. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

Did anyone in the neighborhood see that red compact car or have information about the shooting?
