Daniel Donny Garcia, 23, was found with gunshot wounds on May 13, 2019, in the 67-100 block of Santa Barbara Drive in Cathedral City, California. Paramedics responded and he was pronounced dead at the scene at 8:15 p.m. The Riverside County Coroner’s Bureau identified him as Daniel Fernandez-Garcia. The Cathedral City Police Department opened a homicide investigation and cordoned off several streets while detectives sought information from the public.

Court records show Garcia had faced an illegal gun possession charge in 2017 that was dismissed. Records and family statements differ over alleged gang ties: some documents linked him to Barrio Dream Homes, but family members and an advocate said Garcia fought to clear his name and believed he was the victim of police profiling. Police publicly reported finding no evidence that the shooting was gang-related and said it was not connected to an unrelated fatal shooting in Desert Hot Springs earlier that day. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

Did anyone in Cathedral City see or hear anything on the evening of May 13, 2019, that could help investigators?
