On the night of May 17, 2014, Eduardo Vital-Cazares, a 40-year-old Hispanic man, was on the porch of his Milwaukee home in the 1500 block of S. 22nd Street when a group approached with the intent to rob him. Surveillance from a nearby food mart shows Vital-Cazares at his front door about 11:40 p.m.; minutes later four people passed the house and two ran onto the porch and appeared to attack him. One of the assailants fired a gun, striking him in the left side of the head. He was taken to Froedtert Hospital and pronounced dead shortly after midnight on May 18th.

Investigators developed two suspects after an anonymous tip. Statements attributed to Calvin Clayton described his participation in the attempted robbery and implicated Kelsea Smith as the shooter. On June 15, 2014, Oak Creek police arrested Smith on an unrelated weapons charge and recovered a .22-caliber revolver. Ballistics testing linked that gun to the fatal shooting and Smith’s DNA was found on the weapon. Smith was charged with first-degree reckless homicide by use of a dangerous weapon; Clayton was charged with felony murder.

Are there any witnesses or additional surveillance from that block who can add details about the group seen walking past Vital-Cazares’s home?
