LAKEWOOD, Calif. (KABC) — A somber candlelight vigil was held and a GoFundMe was launched the day after a man killed his wife and teenage daughter before fatally shooting himself at their Lakewood home.
Sienna Alfaro, nicknamed Lilly by her soccer teammates, played for Beach Futbol Club.
“If there’s one thing I could say about Lilly is that she is a ray of sunshine,” teammate Hazel Ferman said at the vigil. “She’s a very jolly person. Her smile would bright up the room. Her energy was just out of this world, man like she would walk in, even though she’s a shy girl, when she would smile is like everybody knew that we just connected.”
Deputies responded at around 7:55 a.m. Thursday to the 5800 block of Lorelei Avenue, near South Street, to a report of an assault with a deadly weapon, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
The caller stated that her father had shot at her and was now lying near her on the floor unconscious, according to authorities.
When deputies arrived, they were met by an “extremely distraught” 19-year-old woman who was detained for questioning after she came outside. Inside the house, they found three deceased individuals — a 17-year-old girl, a man, and a woman.
Deputies entered the home and found 52-year-old Hector Lionel Alfaro, lying on the floor in the den of the home suffering from a gunshot wound to his upper torso.
As deputies continued through the home they located 48-year-old Roxana Rodriguez, the gunman’s wife, in a bedroom with a gunshot wound to her torso.
In a second bedroom, deputies found Sienna Alfaro suffering from a gunshot wound to her upper torso.
The 19-year-old woman, identified as Alfaro’s eldest daughter, heard gunshots inside the home while she was asleep. Hector Alfaro then appeared near her armed with a handgun and shot at her several times; however, she was not struck by gunfire. He then shot himself while standing near his 19-year-old daughter.
Authorities said two firearms were recovered at the home.
As of Saturday afternoon, the GoFundMe had raised more than $70,000.
“This fundraiser is to support the surviving siblings as they begin the long journey of healing-helping with immediate needs (funeral services), counseling, living expenses, and creating some stability during an incredibly painful time,” a statement on the fundraising page said. “Any donation, no matter the size, and even sharing this page, is a way to show love, support, and remind them they are not alone.”
