  • Glendale police say the shooting happened around 11:45 p.m. on Aug. 15 at a red light near 51st Avenue and Camelback Road.
  • Investigators report two pickup drivers argued at the light before one fired a single shot through his own window that pierced the passenger side of Hermosillo’s SUV.
  • Hermosillo’s boyfriend drove her to a hospital, where she died; her young son and her mother were in the back seat and were not injured.
  • Detectives used footage from multiple cameras to identify Jesus Preciado Dousten, recovered two handguns during a search, and arrested him at his apartment.
