Garcia died from his injuries. A suspect, Lord Gabriel, got away in a four-door sedan.
Less than a day after the shooting, police in Tucson, Arizona, arrested Lord, also a 25-year old. The resident of Pittsburg, California, is now in a Pima County Jail cell, awaiting transport back to San Diego to be formally charged in Garcia’s death.
Family members told NBC 7 that Garcia was a peacekeeper, not a troublemaker. He was an up-and-coming artist and the father of a 5-year-old girl.
Recent shootings have some living, working and visiting the Gaslamp Quarter concerned about their safety. NBC 7's Dana Griffin heard from them.
