Do you know who murdered Faustino? On a cold January night in 1999, a young life was abruptly cut short in a violent encounter outside a Tulsa nightclub. Nineteen-year-old Faustino Alfaro Molina, a male, was at the Kabana Club, located at 3601 E. Admiral, when tragedy struck. In the early hours of January 17th, the sound of gunfire shattered the night, drawing the attention of those nearby and prompting a call to the Tulsa Police Department.
When officers arrived at the scene, they discovered Molina had been shot.
The wounds proved to be fatal, and a life full of potential was extinguished. The ensuing investigation painted a chaotic picture of the moments following the shooting. Witnesses reported seeing a distinctive vehicle fleeing the scene immediately after the gunshots. The suspect or suspects were seen in a red Chevrolet low-rider pickup truck. The truck was further described as having a topper, gray primer spots, and eye-catching chrome and gold Dayton wheels. The vehicle was last seen heading eastbound on East Admiral, disappearing into the night.
Despite the detailed description of the getaway vehicle, the individuals responsible for Faustino Molina's death have never been apprehended. The case has since gone cold, leaving a lingering sense of injustice and unanswered questions for his family and the community. The Tulsa Police Department continues to list the murder of Faustino Alfaro Molina as an unsolved crime, a poignant reminder of a life taken too soon and a search for culprits that has spanned decades without resolution. No arrests have ever been made in connection with his murder, and the identities of the suspect or suspects remain unknown.
