2 Texans charged with quadruple capital murder after robbery gone wrong ends in massacre
A 20-year-old woman and an 18-year-old man in Texas have been arrested for allegedly gunning down four adults inside a Dallas residence Sunday evening while leaving an infant unharmed. Azucena Sanchez and Artemio Maldonado were taken into custody Sunday evening and charged with capital murder.
According to a press release from the Dallas Police Department, officers at approximately 7:10 p.m. on March 12 responded to a 911 call regarding a shooting at a residence located in the 3500 block of Villaverde Avenue. Upon arriving at the scene, first responders went inside the apartment where they located four adult victims — two men and two women — all of whom appeared to have been shot to death. All four victims were pronounced dead at the scene.
Investigators say they were soon able to identify Maldonado and Sanchez as suspects in the shooting. Police at approximately 9:30 p.m. located the suspects at a residence located in the 2700 block of Northhaven Road. Both suspects at around 10 p.m. were taken into custody and charged with capital murder.

After being taken into custody, police say that Maldonado confessed to shooting all four of the victims, WFAA reported. He reportedly explained that Sanchez broke into the apartment through a window in one of the back bedrooms. Once they were both inside, he reportedly said they had a “confrontation” with the four occupants that ended with him shooting all of the adults.
Sanchez allegedly said she believed the apartment was empty at the time she broke in, telling police that the plan was only to steal some money. Sanchez confirmed that a “confrontation” ensued and Maldonado shot the four victims, WFAA reported.
The two said they stole a box from the bedroom closet before leaving, believing it was filled with cash, but later found out that the box was empty.
