Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said on X, formerly known as Twitter, that investigators believe the deadly shooting stemmed from an argument Brown had with Romero at work and shot him because of their disagreement.

“Investigators believe the suspect had a disagreement with the victim at work, before the shooting occurred,” Sheriff said.

Deputies were dispatched to the 13300 block of Wimbledon Oaks on May 1 about a man being shot outside his residence.

Police believe Romero had just gotten into his vehicle when he was ambushed as he sat in the vehicle with approximately 13 shots being fired from an AK-47-type weapon.
