Arizona family desperate for answers after father's shooting death: 'It doesn't seem real'

In August, a man was shot and killed following an argument in a Phoenix area neighborhood. Months following the deadly shooting, the case remains unsolved, and the victim's family, including his two kids, are desperate for answers.

"To this day, it doesn't seem real," said one of Victor Garcia's son, Victor Jr. "Like, it feels like I'm gonna go home, and he will be there waiting for us."

"I lost my brother, my mom lost her son. He was the rock of the family," said Garcia's sister, Griselda Carrasco.

According to police, several people confronted Garcia in a neighborhood at 91st Avenue and Indian School Road on Aug. 28. It's not known what caused the confrontation.

"He told us goodbye, said ‘I love you guys,’" said Victor. "I thought I would see him the next day. For me, it, like, took the life out of me. It took who I was. I'm still trying every day to find myself back again"

As Thanksgiving approaches, Garcia's loved ones are hoping for closure.

"It's not gonna bring him back," said Carrasco. "It will help his kids to know that at least there is someone who is responsible for his death."
