Billy Joe Cruz, 39, was found dead on the morning of August 23, 2018, in the 700 block of Central Avenue South in Quincy, Washington. The Quincy Police Department quickly ruled his death a homicide and linked it to a shots-fired report from about 10:40 p.m. the previous night in the 1200 block of Central Avenue South. Officers initially searched near State Route 281 and Road 9 Northwest but found no immediate evidence.

Police said security video suggested Cruz was specifically targeted. Investigators asked the public for help identifying a dark-colored Chevrolet pickup, possibly a 2008-or-newer model, with chrome wheels and a toolbox that may be connected to the case. No arrests have been announced and the motive remains unknown.

Does anyone in Quincy remember seeing that truck or have information about the shooting or where Cruz may have been the night before his death?
