The Shooting

Police say Heath was driving down Dell Range Boulevard with Harrison in the front and Munguia and Nicholson in the back at the time of the shooting.

According to statements, Munguia and Nicholson were handling a gun when Munguia reportedly pulled the trigger, striking and killing Harrison.

Heath pulled over and Nicholson fled on foot with the gun. She then proceeded to the mall parking lot and called 911.

Thanks to tips from community members, Nicholson was located about three hours later and he and Munguia were subsequently arrested.

Heath was arrested eight days later.
