DeAngelo Monteza Meriweather, 21, was shot during a house party in central El Paso on October 19, 2019, and died later at a hospital. Meriweather was a specialist in the U.S. Army stationed at Fort Bliss, recently returned from deployment to South Korea, and had earned several service awards including the Army Achievement Medal and Korea Defense Service Medal.

Authorities say a fight at the party escalated when 17-year-old Joseph Anthony Rocha allegedly fired a gun in multiple directions. Four other people were injured: Asia Knight, 21; Juan Mata, 18; Kevin Marincuellar, 19; and Markendy Dessources, 22. Rocha was taken into custody after barricading himself in a residence, live-streaming, and then surrendering following a SWAT response. He was booked with a $1 million bond and charged with murder.

What did anyone at the party see that might clarify how the fight began or why shots were fired?
