Antonio Vargas, 28, of Livermore, California, was shot and killed on July 16, 2022, at about 6 p.m. during an altercation in the bar area of the Granada Bowl bowling alley. The shooting occurred on a busy evening when families and children were present for a birthday party; a man in his 20s pulled a handgun and fired multiple rounds, wounding three people. Vargas died; two other victims were injured and were expected to recover.

Livermore police identified 27-year-old Roger Alemán García as the suspect and arrested him a few days later at a residence in Lathrop, California. Authorities believe Vargas, García and the other victims were acquainted, but the motive for the confrontation is not clear.

Vargas was remembered by family and friends as a hardworking son who had recently started a carpet cleaning business and was a DACA recipient who came to the United States from Mexico. His family established a GoFundMe to help cover funeral expenses and to return his body to Mexico for burial.
