In the early morning hours of July 18, 2015, 20-year-old Leonardo Salinas-Lopez was shot and killed on Interstate 5 near Mount Vernon, Washington. He and his 21-year-old cousin, Miguel A. Lopez, were driving northbound home from a party; Leonardo sat in the front passenger seat. Around 3:00 a.m. near the College Way exit, a dark-colored king cab pickup truck with Washington plates pulled up alongside their vehicle and an occupant opened fire. Both Leonardo and his cousin were struck and died at the scene; a backseat passenger was uninjured and ran for help, telling authorities the occupants did not know the shooter.

The interstate was closed for hours while the Washington State Patrol searched a two-mile area, including with K-9 units seeking shell casings. Families described profound grief and asked for justice as law enforcement appealed to the public for information to identify the truck and the shooter. The suspect vehicle remained at large and no immediate arrests were made.

Did anyone see that dark king cab pickup or the vehicle near the College Way exit around 3:00 a.m. on July 18, 2015?
