While watching the film, 20-year-old Joseph Jimenez approached both of them and shot both of them in the head before fleeing the scene. Jimenez was with 3 friends as the only other people in the seating area, with his friends noticing that he started talking to himself after leaving halfway through the film. After noticing this, the friends had left due to fears he had a weapon, leaving just Jimenez, Barajas, and Goodrich in the theater. After the shooting, witnesses reported that Jimenez ran out of the theater shortly after the shots were fired and sped off in his vehicle. Rylee was instantly killed at the age of 18 while Anthony was still alive after being found by 2 employees cleaning up after the film had ended. Anthony would die in hospital 5 days later.

The attempted murder charge was upgraded to another count of first-degree murder after Anthony's death.

Jimenez would later give an interview in jail, claiming that he had been recently diagnosed with schizophrenia and was under the belief that his loved ones would be killed if he didn't kill them both. He expressed his condolences to the Barajas and Goodrich family, saying that he would leave the theater if he was to relive the night of the shooting.

Police would find 8 bodies with their deaths immediately being ruled as a homicide.

Neighbors talked about the family hosting a ‘walk-about’ last summer to get the neighborhood together.

The County Attorney claimed there was insufficient evidence to place charges on Michael at the time. It was also revealed that Tausha had filed for divorce 2 weeks prior to the shooting.
