Jose Cazares, 36, was shot and killed in Oklahoma City in the early morning hours of March 11, 2018. He had been socializing with friends at a home and left with a woman identified as Michelle Portillo. Around 4:30 a.m., police found Cazares in a parking lot near N. McKinley Ave. and Linwood Blvd. with gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Detectives say Cazares was confronted after exiting Portillo’s vehicle by Abel Moreno Quinonez; an argument reportedly escalated and Quinonez allegedly shot him. Investigators allege the encounter was part of a planned robbery. Portillo, 27, Nilsa Rodriguez, 39, and Quinonez, 30, were arrested. The probable cause affidavit says Portillo admitted to a witness that the original plan was to rob Cazares, Rodriguez allegedly drove Quinonez to the scene and helped him flee, and charges were filed against all three.

Did anyone see Cazares that night or have information about the people who were with him?
