Manuel Garcia, 40, was found with multiple gunshot wounds in the 700 block of North Erica Street in Pharr, Texas, on the evening of Friday, June 6, 2025. First responders attempted lifesaving measures, but Garcia died at the scene.

Within days investigators arrested a 34-year-old Pharr resident, Fernando Sandoval III, and charged him with murder in connection with Garcia’s death. A magistrate set bond at $2 million on the murder count. Authorities also filed four counts of endangering or abandoning a child related to circumstances described around the time of the shooting. Police asked community members to share information that might aid the investigation.
