According to police, Munguia and Nicholson were reportedly handling a gun in the back seat of a vehicle that was traveling on Dell Range Boulevard when Munguia pulled the trigger, killing Harrison, who was in the front passenger seat.

Police say when the driver pulled over, Nicholson grabbed the gun and took off on foot. The driver then proceeded to the mall parking lot where she called 911.

Thanks to tips from community members, Nicholson was located about three hours later and taken into custody without incident.
