Lives immigrants built in a Texas town were shattered by a mass shooting that left 5 dead, including a 9-year-old boy. As the victims are remembered for seeking better lives in the U.S., residents are uncertain the community can recover.
Mass shooting survivor Wilson Garcia looks up to the sky during a vigil for his son, Daniel Enrique Laso, 9, Sunday, April 30, 2023, in Cleveland, Texas. Garcia's son and wife were among the five people killed in a mass shooting last week when the suspected gunman, Francisco Oropeza, allegedly shot his neighbors after they asked him to stop firing off rounds in his yard.
On a 1-acre plot of land bought with a small down payment, Garcia built a home in the Trails End neighborhood that provided nurturing shelter for his family. It was also an inviting space for friends to visit. The lush green space around his home, located about 60 miles north of Houston, reminded Garcia of the countryside of his native Honduras.
