Family Pleads for Help Finding Suspects in Killing of Father Parked Outside Bronx Deli

A Bronx family is pleading for help finding the suspects who shot and killed a father of three as he was parked outside a corner deli.

"I hope that they catch who did it, I hope that his daughters can have closure," said Abraham Martinez, the grieving brother of Jose Ingles. "I think they need it the most." 

Ingles, 37, was shot in the Hunts Point section of the Bronx on May 4. Police say surveillance footage shows Ingles double-parking his van outside of a corner deli, and a woman gets out to go to the deli. Moments later, two men come up to Ingles' vehicle, one on each side, and the suspect on the driver's side then opens fire on him. 

The two men are seen running away on foot just before the woman leaves the store and also takes off. 

Police released a sketch of a suspect in the shooting and spoke to the woman in the video, but no arrest has been made. 

Martinez recalled talking to his brother days before the murder.

"I would have always loved to have said as sincerely as I could, that 'I love you,' if I knew it was going to be the last time I was going to talk to him," he said. 

Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS.
