On June 6, 2016, 53-year-old Ramon Rios was found dead in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood, the victim of a homicide. The incident occurred at 1576 SW 2nd Street on June 4, 2016, but his body was officially discovered two days later. The City of Miami Police launched an investigation into the murder but have not identified any suspects. Despite the police urging the public to come forward with information, the case remains unsolved. A reward of up to $3,000 was offered for tips that could lead to an arrest.
Rios was remembered as a joyful and loving man, full of life and always ready to share a story or a joke. His family set up a fundraiser to help cover funeral expenses, highlighting the emotional toll his death took on those closest to him. The lack of media attention on his case has been a source of frustration, as his loved ones continue to seek justice and closure.
