A 25-year-old woman has been gunned down in cold blood by a mystery shooter as she left work.
The police said the gunman was waiting for Cristal Isabel Vélez Feliciano and fired multiple times when she appeared at the doorway.
She was leaving the embroidery printing company where she worked in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico, on November 11.
The murder was filmed by a nearby CCTV camera and the police have released images of the suspected gunman and called on the public to help identify him.
Released images show a middle-aged man wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and a black and blue Adidas baseball cap with blue jeans and a black face mask.
Police spokesperson Joel González Ramos told local media that the victim had recently filed two complaints for damage to her property.
Cristal claimed that bullets were fired at her apartment when she wasn’t there one evening, and that a motorboat she owned was set on fire.
The victim was unharmed in both alleged attacks in October.
The police said the investigation has been widened since learning of the victim’s recent complaints.
González Ramos said the gunman was waiting for Cristal as she left her work, adding: “There were several shell casings at the scene.”
She reportedly suffered multiple gunshot wounds and died while being treated in hospital.
On November 12, a Mayagüez judge ordered the arrest of Felipe Soto Planten, 43, a local resident who is suspected of driving the vehicle the gunman arrived in.
The man was arrested later that night while in a white Kia Soul from 2017, which was allegedly used by the gunman to travel to the murder scene.
The vehicle was recently reported as stolen in the island’s capital San Juan.
The detainee has been charged with possession of a stolen vehicle and remains in police custody after failing to pay a $20,000 bail.
The search for the suspected killer continues.
