TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A Seffner man accused of shooting at a car and killing the driver faces a murder charge after his arrest in Brevard County on Tuesday.

“It does give us a little peace, but we just want to make sure justice gets served, this is just one small step in this system,” said Laura Proenza, the victim’s sister.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office said Jorge Ramirez, 20, was behind the wheel during a Jan. 26 road rage incident in Riverview.

Bryan Proenza, 34, was driving a Chevy Suburban with his fiancé and two young children when they encountered Ramirez near Rose Lane and Baytree Drive.

“Witnesses say Ramirez was trying to pass the Suburban to cut through a parking lot to avoid waiting at a red light,” a news release from the state attorney’s office stated. “The passengers in Ramirez’ vehicle say he became angry when a Suburban blocked the entrance to the parking lot.”

Court documents state Ramirez, accompanied by two friends, chased the family’s SUV and struck it three times. Ramirez pulled ahead of Proenza and both vehicles pulled over in a residential area, according to the State Attorney’s Office.

Both men got out of their cars and Proenza grabbed two metal pipes from his trunk, the state attorney said. That’s when Ramirez was accused of drawing a gun and firing at Proenza, who was over 20 feet away, from behind his BMW.

“This all occurred while the victim’s fiancé and children were watching from the Suburban,” the news release stated. “Witnesses from both vehicles say the victim was never running toward the BMW or threatening anyone when shots rang out.”

Proenza was rushed to the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead.

“After a thorough review of the investigation from Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, it is clear the defendant was the aggressor in this case,” State Attorney Suzy Lopez said in a statement. “He had no regard for the victim’s life, or the lives of his small children who tragically watched their father die in the middle of the road. My heart is with his fiancé and loved ones as they work through this unimaginable trauma.”

Nearly a month after the incident, Brevard County deputies arrested Ramirez on the HCSO warrant. He was charged with three counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and now faces a second degree murder charge.

“Our hearts break for this family who lost a loved one in the face of senseless violence,” Sheriff Chad Chronister said in a statement. “At this time, our detectives are meticulously piecing together the moments that led up to this fatal shooting. While this investigation is active, we urge anyone who might have witnessed the incident to please come forward.”

Speaking to News Channel 8 last month, Proenza’s family recounted the horrifying moments that followed the shooting.

“He’s like, ‘I’m dying, I love yall,’ I’m like no you’re not don’t say that,” said Rachel Keesee, Proenza’s fiancé.

Proenza leaves five children behind.

“It’s just heartbreaking to see him get shot,” his 10-year-old stepson said.
