On June 4, 2019, 21-year-old Jose Adolfo De La Cruz was fatally shot in Las Cruces, New Mexico, shortly after 5 p.m. Officers found De La Cruz with a gunshot wound on the 400 block of East University Avenue; he was taken to MountainView Regional Medical Center, where he died.

Investigators say De La Cruz had arranged a drug transaction for LSD with Juan Galindo, 21, and Matthew Sierra, 19, arranged through a mutual acquaintance. After an initial meeting in an IHOP parking lot did not proceed, De La Cruz left. Galindo and Sierra followed him to the acquaintance’s residence on University Avenue, and authorities allege Galindo exited a vehicle with a handgun and fired multiple rounds into De La Cruz’s car, striking him while he sat in the driver’s seat. The two fled but were arrested later that evening and charged with first-degree murder and tampering with evidence; Sierra also faced shooting into a vehicle and narcotics and firearm counts.

Does anyone have information about De La Cruz, the meeting that evening, or the people involved?
