Oscar Rangel, 24, was found dead in Wapato, Washington, on June 7, 2019, the victim of a gunshot wound. The Yakima County Coroner’s Office confirmed the wound, and the Yakima County Sheriff’s Office opened and treated the matter as a homicide investigation.

Investigators worked to determine what happened, but the circumstances of the shooting were not made public, and no suspects were identified in the weeks and months after the death. Despite interviews and evidence-gathering described as ongoing, the case produced no immediate arrests and later cooled without significant breakthroughs.

Anyone who knew Oscar, was in Wapato around June 7, 2019, or has information that could help identify those responsible is asked to contact the Yakima County Sheriff’s Office.
