The two victims, a 35-year-old woman and a 34-year-old male were found shot inside a parked car after a shooting at the area of the 2400 Block of Yowell Court, according to police.
Officer Christina Fernandez, a spokeswoman for the Yuma Police Department, stated that the male was treated and later discharged while the woman was declared dead at the hospital. The name of the dead woman is “Alexis Rodriguez”.
Alexis Rodriguez’s sister had set up a GoFundMe page for her. Alex’s sister said as many of you already know, on September 12, 2023, a homicide claimed the lives of my sister Alexis Rodriguez and her unborn child.
As you might understand, our preparation for what comes next makes her untimely death quite painful emotionally. We would be eternally grateful if you could support our family with a donation. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Please accept my sincere gratitude.
