Police say there are several suspects, and they are still running down leads. Monday afternoon, Morales' family gathered at a makeshift memorial of flowers that was constructed where police found Morales' body.

Morales was the youngest of ten children. His older brother Daniel says his brother was looking forward to his sophomore year this fall at Centennial High School.

"Actually he hit me up last night for a new pair of shoes to start back school," Daniel Morales said.

Police say they are searching for multiple suspects. The getaway vehicle is described as an early 2000s gray Ford Focus.
