The shooting occurred around 11:15 a.m. near the intersection of I Street and Manning Avenue. Jeffer and 21-year-old Axel Bladimir Orellana were found inside a car with fatal gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators determined a second vehicle was likely involved, suggesting the attack was targeted rather than random.
