So who would want to kill him? His girlfriend said it is surely a case of mistaken identity:...

Yvette Leiva, Girlfriend of the Deceased
"I don't know why that night why he was there out there, because he works on Sundays and he always comes home early because he has to work the next day. That night I don't know what he was doing out there."

Reporter
"Reports are that he went to pick up some tortilla for a guy?"

Yvette Leiva, Girlfriend of the Deceased
"Yes, that what I understand. I understood that he went to pick up tortillas and he got shot at the back. I don't know who did this, but I think it was a mistake. It's a confusion. I think that's what happened. It shouldn't have been Samuel though. For us it's a shock, because everybody who knows Samuel, knows that Samuel was a very quiet and shy person - that he only keeps to himself. He is not a street boy. I don't know what to think, but whoever did this, we just wish that God punishes him, because I don't know why he did it."

Reporter
"Basically, the family would be safe to say that he was at the wrong place at the wrong time?"

Yvette Leiva, Girlfriend of the Deceased
"Yes, that's what we are thinking. I will always remember him and he will always keep a special place in my heart."
