QuickTake:

Police have released few details about their investigation, except that the shooter remained at the scene and has been cooperative. A cousin of the man killed remembered him as always willing to help those around him.

Prosecutors will decide whether to file criminal charges in connection with a fatal shooting Sept. 5 at a Walmart parking lot in Eugene, a Eugene police spokesperson said Wednesday.

Police said the person who shot Jaime Javier Lagarda-Govea, 21, of Springfield did not leave the scene after the shooting and cooperated with investigators. But police have not released any additional information.

Melinda McLaughlin, a Eugene police spokesperson, said Wednesday the police department’s investigative report has been sent to the Lane County District Attorney’s Office for review.

Diego Fierro remembered his cousin, known as Jimmy, as an outgoing and enthusiastic person always willing to help the people around him.

“He had such a contagious sense of freedom and joy as he was always trying to have a good time during anything that he did,” Fierro said in a text message. “My cousin was such a strong and courageous young soul who was so motivated and gave his all at everything he invested himself in.”

Fierro said he grew up with Lagarda in Springfield, and that his cousin once worked at the Walmart in Eugene where he was killed, before transferring to a Springfield store. At the time of his death, Lagarda worked at an assisted living home.

“I am so torn, my cousin’s life was taken from him so young,” Fierro said.

Unlike with some other police investigations in Eugene, no text alerts went out to residents of the area after the shooting.

Decisions about such alerts depend on the circumstances of each case, McLaughlin said in an email.

“At the shooting in the Walmart parking lot, there was no roadway impact, and the person who shot the weapon was on scene cooperating,” McLaughlin said.

After the shooting, shoppers continued to stream into and out of the store on the 4500 block of West 11th Avenue. McLaughlin said police had no role in the decision to keep the store open.

A GoFundMe page has been established to help Lagarda’s family pay for funeral expenses.
