On October 15, investigators say a customer had just placed  an order when two men wearing surgical gloves and bandannas over their faces stormed into Porfirio's Two carrying what looked to be handguns and demanding money. They ordered the customer and two employees to the ground then violently began attacking the customer.

The 35-year-old victim somehow managed to pull his 45 Caliber handgun out and shot 24-year-old Shawn Rose in the chest and he died at the scene. His brother 22-year-old Justin Rose was also shot and critically injured.

Authorities say Justin Rose asked his mother, Soto, 52, and his girlfriend Ramos, 25, to assist in the robbery by going to the pizza shop to check on how many people were inside before the robbery attempt happened. Police say the two women agreed.

They added that Rose was in communication with both women during the robbery and that Ramos had remained on the phone with him even after he was shot.
