Zamora and Garduno were found by responding officers with gunshot wounds and were transported to local hospitals, where both succumbed to their injuries.

Police said an off-duty officer who happened to be at the scene confronted Lizarraga immediately after the shooting and fatally shot him. Authorities believe Lizarraga targeted the victims intentionally. Zamora was reportedly in the process of divorcing him.
