Loera Urias, police said, was located inside the front door area of the consulate while Velasquez Flores was outside the entrance.

Crews immediately performed life-saving measures on Loera Urias, but he ultimately died of his injuries at the scene. Velasquez Flores was taken to an area hospital where he was treated for this wound.

A short time after arriving at the scene, officers were dispatched to a nearby gas station after receiving reports that the suspect had been seen there.

A preliminary investigation determined that a verbal altercation occurred outside the consulate between Olmo-Rosado and Loera Urias. The altercation became physical, police said, and Olmo-Rosado allegedly fired several rounds, striking Loera Urias and Velasquez Flores before fleeing the scene.

Olmo-Rosado is charged with murder as well as two counts of aggravated assault.
