The couple had arrived at a Chick-fil-A in Houston and waited for the victim, a Doordash driver who Alolaimi was having an affair with, to show up. They had parked next to his vehicle and waited for him to come out of the restaurant.

Bishtawi then jumped out from under a curtain in the back seat of the vehicle, put the victim in a chokehold and pressed a gun against the victim's head. When the victim attempted to escape, Bishtawi shot him twice.
