A dispute inside a taxi minivan in Hempstead on September 6, 2020, ended with 22-year-old Edwin Guerrero shot and killed. Around 3:55 a.m. on High Street a verbal argument among passengers escalated. After one passenger exited, another passenger, Denis Gutierrez-Marcos, leaned forward from a rear seat and fired a gun through an open window, wounding a different man in the shoulder. Guerrero chased the taxi as it began to drive away and, when he reached it and tried to open a passenger door, was shot through the window.
He was taken to Nassau University Medical Center and pronounced dead. The first man who was shot survived his injuries. Police later identified Denis Gutierrez-Marcos as the shooter and arrested him in June 2021; authorities alleged a gang motivation.
Does anyone have information about Guerrero’s last movements or who witnessed the argument that night?
