On the evening of July 17, 2010, 15-year-old David Baldonado was riding a bicycle on Gregory Avenue in Sunnyside, Washington, when a white Cadillac pulled up and a 16-year-old, Alex Bueno, got out, shouted a gang challenge, then fired two close-range shots. David, who was not in a gang, was struck in the neck, chest, and arms and was pronounced dead at Sunnyside Community Hospital. He reportedly wore a maroon shirt and red belt, clothing mistaken for gang colors.

Several people in the Cadillac were arrested. Alex Bueno was identified as the shooter, tried as an adult, pleaded guilty, and in May 2011 was sentenced to a minimum of 25 years before parole; he expressed remorse at sentencing. Also charged or taken into custody were 18-year-olds Jorge Galindo Cardenas and Myra Sosa; an 18-year-old, Raul Robert Alvarez, was identified as a fourth suspect. Court documents say Bueno, Sosa, Cardenas, Alvarez and a confidential informant were in the car and that Bueno held a gun to the driver’s head to force the vehicle down the street.

Does anyone have additional details about David’s life or the neighborhood at the time that could shed light on the case?
