The quiet on Taylor street was broken by gunfire last night. When it was all done one man was dead and Wichita Falls Police are searching for clues.

News Channel 6 is reporting that witnesses reported several shots fired near the intersection of Avenue L and Taylor Street last night (07.01.2021) and when it was over 26-year-old Guadalupe Valdez had been killed.

One neighbor reported hearing three or four gunshots, then the screeching of tires as a vehicle sped away. By the time they felt safe to go outside again, Wichita Falls Police were on the scene searching for evidence.

Another neighbor was hoping they had captured something on their Ring doorbell camera. Others in the neighborhood say that the night had been quiet up until the gunshots with no one hearing any shouting or arguing leading up to the incident.
