Guadalupe Salinas Jr., a 35-year-old Hispanic man from Weslaco, Texas, was shot to death on June 8, 2020, in the 2400 block of 12th Street near Pleasant View Drive. Responding officers found him slumped inside a white Mercury parked on the roadway in front of a driveway; the car had eight bullet holes and Guadalupe had been shot three times and later died of his injuries.

The shooter was identified as 25-year-old Angel Herrera. Surveillance footage showed Herrera standing in the roadway before the shooting, and text messages recovered from Herrera’s phone indicated a growing dispute between the two men. Herrera was arrested after a three-hour manhunt and was found barricaded in a bedroom with a handgun; officers also seized multiple bags of marijuana and other controlled substances from his residence.

Guadalupe was born July 11, 1984, to Mr. Guadalupe Salinas and Juana Yzaguirre Salinas and is survived by his mother, three sons Angel Gael Salinas, Jose Jordan Salinas, and Ethan Salinas, a brother Jesus Andres Salinas, and a sister Laura Balboa. Anyone with information about Guadalupe or the shooting is asked to come forward.
