Her 27-year-old daughter, Carolyn Cantu, died in the same incident; a third person was also shot and their condition is not stated. Both Pena and Cantu were taken to a hospital where they succumbed to their injuries.

Police arrested 29-year-old Joe Angel Guerrero at a residence on Buford Street and booked him into the Nueces County Jail on charges including capital murder, aggravated assault on a peace officer, and being a felon in possession of a firearm; bail was set at $2.2 million. Investigators have said the shooting was not random and that the people involved knew one another, and a family fundraiser was held to help cover funeral expenses.
