First off it isn’t a VAN, it’s a PACKAGE CAR. But even if you didn’t know it was a PACKAGE CAR, saying delivery truck or truck in general would be more acceptable. RIP brother. This driver was the nicest and most respectful guy. Worked with him at the Laguna Hub, only interacted with him a few times because I supervised a different center in that hub, but he was always respectful and kind. Condolences to his family and the UPS family.

Maybe the victim flirted with the shooters wife or girlfriend or something more than flirting. This is my guess regarding the shooters motive.
Road rage ??
The fact that someone doing their job can get shot in broad daylight, there were witnesses present, a description of the suspect, surveillance cameras, a getaway vehicle with a make, model, and description, AND IT TOOK THAT LONG TO FIND THEM SHOULD BE A MASSIVE CONCERN TO ANYONE WHO LIVES HERE AND HAS A FAMILY!
