It's 9 p.m. on August 24, 2016.

26-year-old Jose Ortiz has just left his sister's home in Worcester's Bell Hill neighborhood.

He's walking along Elliot Street, making his way to his job as a personal care assistant, when a minivan pulls up alongside Jose.

The driver gets out of the vehicle.

Witnesses say Jose and the unidentified man driving the minivan get into a heated argument in the street.

The man fires a single shot into Jose's chest, hops back into the van, and speeds away.

Jose Ortiz is left dying in the middle of the road.
