Jose A. Quinones-Osorio, 29, was shot to death in Milwaukee on January 1, 2019. The shooting followed a car crash near South 10th and West Orchard streets in the Historic Mitchell Street neighborhood. An argument after the collision turned into a physical altercation involving multiple people, and a gun was drawn; Quinones-Osorio was struck multiple times and later died. An autopsy recorded ten gunshot wounds.

Witnesses at the scene identified Jose Xavier Hernandez-Vargas as the shooter, and Hernandez-Vargas was charged with first-degree intentional homicide. Quinones-Osorio’s girlfriend witnessed the confrontation, found him on the ground, attempted to aid him, and called 911, although she did not see who fired the shots. As the trial approached, a key witness became unavailable and on May 20, 2019 the charge against Hernandez-Vargas was dismissed without prejudice and he was released from bail conditions.

Who in the neighborhood remembers the crash or the confrontation that night and can add details to the timeline?
