In a tragic turn of events, a man from Las Vegas is facing charges of double murder following a deadly shooting incident at a local grocery store. Alejandro Estrada, aged 43, is accused of fatally shooting his ex-wife, Amanda Rosas, and her husband, Victor Frias Rosas, at their workplace on a fateful Tuesday.
According to police reports, Estrada entered the Smith’s grocery store, where the couple was employed, and immediately commenced shooting. The chaos was eventually subdued by courageous patrons who managed to tackle Estrada, restraining him until law enforcement arrived on the scene.
Tragically, Amanda and Victor Frias Rosas were declared dead at the location, marking a devastating outcome for their family and community.
The background to this heartbreaking incident reveals a fraught relationship between Amanda and Estrada, who were embroiled in a contentious custody dispute. Despite Amanda’s recent marriage to Victor last year, the custody battle over their two children, aged 12 and 9, remained unresolved. Reports indicate that Estrada was significantly behind on child support, owing more than $2,800 to Amanda.
Amanda Frias Rosas, 40, and her husband were shot in cold blood by her former spouse within the aisles of a Las Vegas grocery store on May 12, 2026, casting a somber shadow over what should have been an ordinary day. A GoFundMe page has since been set up in their memory, highlighting the deep impact of this senseless tragedy.
Police say Estrada had multiple weapons at the time of the attack. He is now facing 12 charges, including two counts of murder.
“He was completely calm. No expression. No nothing,” shopper Paula Milton told the Las Vegas Review-Journal of Estrada. “You could tell it was him because everyone else was running and screaming, and he was like no big deal.”
The incident comes just days after police arrested a Las Vegas high school student accused of murdering a homeless woman.
The Review-Journal identified the suspect as Dennis Geiggar, a high school student with a reported history of behavioral issues and anger-related incidents. He was arrested May 5, but the body of the victim, 61-year-old Marceline Biasini, was found April 21.

The victim was found lying on the sidewalk outside a business and “suffering from apparent injuries” just after 8 a.m. on April 21, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) told Fox News Digital.
Nearby surveillance video captured a brief, suspicious encounter in the middle of the night, showing a suspect approaching the victim’s area and leaving about a minute later, the Review-Journal reported, citing police records.
“The precise location of the crime scene was obstructed from surveillance cameras, but video surveillance with audio … captured the suspect approaching Marceline’s location and, seconds later, a scream is heard followed by approximately 61 loud thuds,” the Review-Journal report said.

Geiggar had recently been expelled from a nearby high school for allegedly trying to start a fire on campus. Police said he had “numerous incidents where his anger had resulted in his punching walls and trash cans” and had been participating in anger management classes, according to the outlet.
