John Garcia was 48 when he was shot and killed in the garage of his Green Lane home in Las Vegas on July 28, 1996. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots and saw two men fleeing the scene. Authorities later linked Garcia’s killing to a series of apparently random murders that terrorized the city that summer; two other victims named in that spree were Michael Matta and Keith Allen Dyer.

Investigators traced ballistics from the three crime scenes to firearms recovered in a separate stolen-weapons probe. Tests matched bullets to guns found at the home of Tony Ray Amati, who was living in Las Vegas at the time and became the prime suspect.

Are there details about Garcia’s life or movements that anyone in the neighborhood from that summer can share?
