Gabriel Trujillo, a 31-year-old University of California, Berkeley graduate student, was shot and killed in Mexico while conducting field research, according to friends and family.
Trujillo went missing in mid-June month while collecting plant samples in the Mexican state of Sonora, his family said on a GoFundMe page to raise money for funeral services. Trujillo's father, Anthony Trujillo, told The Associated Press his son was shot seven times.
His body was discovered June 22, days after his fiancée reported him missing.
