NORTHWEST MIAMI-DADE (CBSMiami) - New surveillance photos have been released after a 45-year-old father and cook is gunned down Saturday morning while he was outside washing his new red Camaro.

Miami-Dade Police say 45-year-old Enrique Gonzalez Alfonso was shot and killed at 8:40 a.m. at the Silverado Apartment Complex where he lived at N.W. 104th St. and N.W. 17th Ave.

Police released a surveillance photo of white Scion that they are looking for, as well as a photo of two men who they want to speak with.

"From the surveillance video we were able to determine that they were with the victim in the parking lot before the shooting," said Miami-Dade Police Detective Romelio Martinez.

"At this point we have no information on a motive," he told CBS4's Peter D'Oench. "But ahead of the motive, we need people to realize that someone's son is dead. This individual is a brother and a father. The community needs to step forward and come out and help us solve this case and give us the tip we need. Anybody with information should come forward and give the family the closure they need to solve this case."

"Obviously these are individuals who took a person's life and we need to get them off the street," said Martinez.

While police are not sure what the motive was, the victim's family believes the shooting may have a link to his car.

The victims girlfriend Gloria Montero says, "I don't have no words to say they took everything away from me."

Montero said, "He did not have enemies we never fought with anybody I don't have an idea why person would do that you know."

Alfonso's sister Marybel Valladares wept uncontrollably as she told D'Oench, "Ever since he got the car, he was held up three times. And then they killed him, for no reason I don't know why. They didn't have to do this. Everybody loved him. He was very good and had no problems with anybody. I just want to say if anybody knows anything about why someone killed him for no reason, they should say something. I don't want this to end like this."

"He woke up in the morning to wash his car before work because he worked from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. and that was his time to do that," she said. "Please, people need to say something because people loved him. I just want justice."

Maria Montero, who is the sister of Alfonso's girlfriend, said "Basically all he did was feed people and help people. He didn't deserve that but sometimes some good guys have to pay."

"We believe it was all because of the car," she said. "He used to drive a scooter and all of a sudden he started driving a bright new, red Camaro and basically he had a bully. Someone kept denting his car and making the alarms go off. I don't know. It's the only thing I can think of. He came out to wash his car and they shot him one time."

Marybel Valladares said she co-signed on the loan for her brother's new car. And now, after his death, she blames herself for helping him buy this car.

"Somebody's going to come forward," said Montero. "Either way we got the pictures and there is a good up there. It's going to come out."

She said Alfonso had been a cook at Canton Village at 3405 East 4th Ave. in Hialeah.

Alfonso had lived in the apartment complex for the past decade and neighbors say he had never caused any problems there. A check of records showed that he had not been arrested before.

Felicia Robinson, a neighbor who lives at the complex, said "He was a very nice person. He always spoke to me and my husband. I feel real bad. He was a nice person and never did anything bad. I don't know why this happened. He didn't deserve to be shot down like this."

Friends and family members have set up a makeshift memorial where Alfonso lost his life. The memorial consists of stuffed Teddy Bears, lit candles and balloons.

A funeral service was scheduled for 6 p.m. Tuesday for Alfonso at the National Funeral Home at 151 N.W. 37th Ave. Valladares said she expected her father who now lives in Naples to be at the service. She said her mother was no longer alive.

Montero said that Alfonso's 22-year-old son was still in Cuba. "He's really upset. His father was hoping to get him to the U.S. from Cuba. Now this may not happen."

Glorida Montero said, "We know that somebody knows something they just don't want to talk."

There's a reward of up to $3,000 in this case.

Anyone with information should call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at (305) 471-TIPS (8477).
