On the morning of May 12, 2026, Victor Frias Rosas and his wife Amanda Rosas were shopping at the Smith’s Food & Drug in southwest Las Vegas where they both worked. Inside aisle four they were confronted by Amanda’s ex-boyfriend, Alejandro Estrada, who entered the store armed with two firearms and multiple loaded magazines and opened fire, killing both Victor and Amanda.

Surveillance footage places Estrada earlier at the couple’s home, where police found a ripped-off exterior camera, a shattered sliding glass door and a spent .45 casing on the patio. Estrada left a red folder of court papers tucked under Amanda’s arm; he later told police he killed Amanda over child support disputes and shot Victor because he saw him as part of the problem. Two bystanders tackled and disarmed Estrada until Las Vegas Metropolitan Police arrived.

Estrada was arrested and charged with two counts of open murder with a deadly weapon, burglary and aggravated stalking; he was denied bail at his initial court appearance and the Clark County District Attorney’s office said it was considering the death penalty. Anyone who knew Victor or Amanda, or who was in the store that day, is asked to share information with investigators.
