51-year-old man found shot in Arlington homicide identified by medical examiner
A man died after being shot Tuesday night in a homicide in southeast Arlington, according to a news release from police.
Homicide investigators aren’t sure why the 51-year-old victim, identified by the Tarrant County medical examiner as Ricardo Garcia Oliveros Jr., was in the 2200 block of Remynse Drive. Detectives are in the process of looking for witnesses or any video related to the shooting, police said.
The area where Oliveros was found is home to apartment complexes and shops.
