On the morning of June 22, 2026, 18-year-old Xavier Galvez was shot and killed on West Weber Avenue in Stockton, California. Family members remember him as full of life and a devoted family person; his aunt Christina Perez and younger brother Alex described the immediate aftermath as a blur of disbelief, exhaustion and grief. The family has launched a GoFundMe to help cover funeral expenses and has called for justice so the person responsible is taken off the streets.

Xavier’s death came during a spike in violence in Stockton that produced the city’s highest number of homicides for June in over a decade. Police have reported arrests in other homicides from that period, but no public details have been released about suspects or arrests in Xavier’s case, which remains unresolved.

If anyone knew Xavier or has information about what happened on West Weber Avenue the morning of June 22, please come forward.
