A Fort Myers business is offering an additional $5,000 in reward money in hopes of tracking down, and convicting, the person responsible for the death of one of their most valued employees, Domingo Gutierrez-Leon.

Last Friday evening, Gutierrez-Leon was gunned down in front of his home at 563 Prospect Ave., Fort Myers, while on the phone with his wife in Guatemala.  The killer managed to make a quick escape before friends found the hard working 49 year old shot.  Gutierrez-Leon was transported to Lee Memorial Hospital’s Trauma Center, where he later succumbed to his fatal injuries.

While families across Southwest Florida are pondering their New Year’s resolutions, one family has already decided on theirs – to work relentlessly to find the man who killed their 23 year old son and brother last New Year’s Eve.

On December 31, 2010, Hendry County deputies received a 9-1-1 call reporting a man who had collapsed in a ditch in the area of Orange Avenue and Lillian Street.  Upon arrival, officers found 23 year old Nathan Francis lying on the side of the road, suffering from gunshot wounds.
