HIALEAH, Fla. — Hialeah police have identified the victims in Thursday afternoon’s murder-suicide at an apartment complex.
Police said gunman Alberto Cardenas Casillas, 60, shot and killed his 48-year-old wife, Aileen Delgado de Armas, before turning the gun on himself. The couple shares a child, who was not home at the time of the shooting.
Delgado de Armas’ mother, Rocio Delgado, was injured in the shooting at the Lago Grande complex off West 67th Place.
Cellphone video shows officers carrying Delgado out the couple’s first-floor apartment before she was airlifted to a hospital.
Neighbors said they are still trying to process the violence and what led up to the murder-suicide that happened just feet from their homes.
“I got surprised when I (heard) about the news,” neighbor Joseph Baraja said. “When I came back from the daycare, I got surprised a lot by everything.”
As of Friday morning, Delgado remained hospitalized in serious condition.
