On March 9, 2014, Jose Andy Chavez, a 26-year-old Hispanic off-duty officer with the Elmore Police Department, was shot and killed at the Last Call Bar in Fremont, Ohio while celebrating his birthday with friends and family. The confrontation reportedly began after another man punched Chavez’s wife; that man left the bar briefly, returned, and opened fire.
Three people were killed in the shooting: Chavez, bartender Ramiro Sanchez, and patron Daniel Ramirez. A fourth person, Ramiro Arreola, was wounded but survived. The shooter was identified as 33-year-old Fremont resident Igmidio Mista and was taken into custody the day after the attack.
Chavez was given full police funeral services and remembered for his dedication to work and family. If anyone was at Last Call on March 9, 2014, or has information about the events that night, please share what you know.
