On December 29, 2022, at approximately 1:10 AM the Spring Valley Police Department responded to the area of 55 N. Myrtle Avenue for a report of CPR being conducted on a subject because of an unknown medical emergency. Upon arrival, officers quickly located the caller and an apparently deceased male on Johnson Street, adjacent to 55 N. Myrtle Avenue. Spring Hill Ambulance and paramedics also responded to the scene. The victim was identified as 52-year- old Luis Pinduisaca-Villa of Spring Valley.
The investigation revealed that the caller had nothing to do with the original incident and just happened to come across the male lying in the street while driving home at that time. The investigation also revealed that the victim had what appeared to be knife wounds to his neck area. Spring Valley Officers and Detectives spent the overnight conducting interviews, gathering evidence and following leads which eventually lead to the arrest of 27-year-old Spring Valley resident Oscar Garcia-Garcia and 40-year- old Spring Valley resident Eustaquio Diaz-Guitierrez. The first suspect was in custody approximately 12 hours after the crime was committed.
Earlier today, each of the men were arraigned in Spring Valley Justice Court, in front of the Honorable Judge Exias, on an A-1 Felony, Murder in the second- degree charge. They were remanded to the Rockland County Jail.
