A family celebration in Dallas turned deadly on the evening of Saturday, December 6, 2025. A baby shower at Verbazend Creations & Event Venue in the Red Bird area descended into violence after an argument between two women escalated and drew in male guests. Witnesses say a man identified as Jesus Angel Torres was pushed out the front door, then returned and opened fire into the building.

Thirty-three-year-old Joseph Anthony Premeaux, a plumber and father of three who had attended with his wife and children, was reportedly struck in the chest while shielding his wife. He was taken to Methodist Dallas Medical Center and died of his injuries. Four others were wounded, including Premeaux’s cousin Hector Valdez, critically injured with a gunshot to the head. The shooter allegedly fled in a white Nissan Altima.

Investigators located 21-year-old Jesus Angel Torres at a Mansfield hospital with a gunshot wound to his leg and booked him into the Dallas County Jail on a murder charge on December 8. Does anyone have information about what sparked the original dispute or eyewitness details from inside the venue?
