Felix Diaz, a 28-year-old Hispanic male, tragically lost his life on November 13, 2017, in Coral Springs, FL. The incident occurred when Felix arrived at his sister's apartment in Coconut Creek, planning to visit his mother. As he approached the apartment, two masked men confronted him. His mother heard a gunshot and then banging on the door. Felix, in his final moments, called out to his mother, "Mom, I’ve been shot!" before collapsing into her arms. He was rushed to North Broward Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries several hours later.
The investigation into Felix Diaz's death revealed that he was shot in the chest and leg by the assailants, who fled the scene in a late 1990s or early 2000s blue Honda Civic hatchback with a black spoiler. Witnesses reported seeing the vehicle backed into a parking spot, which they found unusual. Despite the efforts of law enforcement, the suspects remain at large, and the case is still unsolved. The police have urged anyone with information to come forward, offering a reward for tips leading to an arrest.
Felix Diaz's family was left devastated by his untimely death. His sister, Vanessa Diaz, expressed their shock and numbness over the loss. Felix, who lived in Coconut Creek, was born and raised in Broward County and attended Taravella High School in Coral Springs. He had been represented by a lawyer, Kevin Raudt, in minor drug cases, who described him as a respectful person. The community and law enforcement continue to seek justice for Felix Diaz, hoping to bring closure to his grieving family.
