Cesar Perez, 37, was shot and killed on May 3, 2017, at Zona Caliente Sports Bar and Grill in Arlington, Texas. Both Perez and Jones were pronounced dead at the scene.

Police said another patron, licensed to carry a concealed handgun, shot and killed Jones during the chaos. Officers reported Jones was carrying four weapons that night: the handgun he used, a second loaded handgun, and two knives. Investigators interviewed dozens of witnesses and reviewed surveillance video; police said Perez and Jones did not know each other and that Jones’ motive remained unclear.

Friends and family remembered Perez as a hard worker who knew his customers by name; a candlelight vigil was held at the restaurant and his sister announced his death on his Facebook page.
