Dallas police are searching for the people responsible for the death of a 72-year-old grandmother.
Family members said Rivera was standing in her kitchen when gunfire started outside. Dallas Police responded to a call at the 3700 Block of Marfa Avenue around 8:30 p.m. on Sunday and found Rivera shot inside her home, but they have not said what led to the gunfire.“ Just hoping and praying that we get justice for her. She will be missed by everybody,” said her granddaughter, Ayla Zaragoza. “No one expected something like this to happen to her, especially in our home making food for our family.
Rivera’s family shared a video with NBC 5 of her dancing during a recent celebration. They said she was the matriarch; the glue that held everyone together. “Our family is huge, and she's been a part of every single one of us. She baptized me, she was in my first communion. There's no words that can explain how much she means to me and all of our family,” said Jasmine Herrera, another one of Rivera’s granddaughters.“If my mom would have been sick it’s something you can sit with, right? Because it's something that has to happen,” Maria Becerra said.
