His older brother, Miguel Duque, used to play for the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School's soccer team when he was a student there.
"He was a very funny kid, outgoing and sometimes really quiet," his brother wrote on a GoFundMe account. "He was sweet and caring and loved by all of his family."
Duque was also a proud member of the U.S. Army Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps.
The Mexican Consulate in Miami released a statement saying they were in touch with Martin's relatives. Martin has family in Florida and in the Mexican town of Santa Teresa, about 3 hours away from Mexico City, in Guerrero, a state on the Pacific coast.
