Ricardo David Ruiz, 37, was shot multiple times through a 7-Eleven window at 1101 E. Bonanza Road in Las Vegas on November 20, 2022. Surveillance footage showed an earlier altercation that day between Ruiz and four young men inside the store; about six hours later two people returned and fired into the shop. Fifteen 9mm shell casings were recovered. Ruiz was taken to University Medical Center and died of his injuries on November 27, 2022.

Investigators linked a dark blue Nissan seen fleeing a graffiti scene on November 26 to the vehicle captured after the 7-Eleven argument. That vehicle was associated with 18-year-old Edwin Medrano-Sanchez. Police arrested Medrano-Sanchez on January 9, 2023; a firearm recovered at his home is believed to be the weapon used and his phone data placed him at both the argument and the later shooting. He was charged with open murder with a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit murder and related offenses. Authorities have not said whether the second shooter has been identified or arrested.

If anyone witnessed the November 20th incident or has information about the second shooter, please share tips with investigators.
