On October 22, 2015, 21-year-old Omar Garcia, a Hispanic man, was shot and killed while inside a vehicle near 53rd Street North and Meridian in Wichita, Kansas. A second 21-year-old, Ernesto Aguilar-Retana, was injured in the same shooting and died a few days later; a third man in the vehicle survived with wounds.

The shooter, 22-year-old Adam Ray, told police he believed the three men were attempting to collect drug money he owed. Ray fled the scene initially but later turned himself in and was arrested. He was originally charged with two counts of second-degree murder, one count of attempted second-degree murder, and possession of methamphetamine; the charges were later amended and he pleaded no contest to two counts of voluntary manslaughter and one count of attempted voluntary manslaughter, receiving a sentence of just under six years in prison.

Does anyone have information about Omar’s life in Wichita or about the night of October 22 that could help clarify what happened?
