<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Instantly, he knew Molina was drunk when he approached him.

I could feel something was not right in the situation,&#8217; he said. ;<br>&#8216;I figured he was still walking behind me. But at that point, it&#8217;s when he turned around and started running. At that point when he started running, something clicked again.<br>&#8216;And I was like what is this man doing? And I just turned around and started going after him,&#8217; Gonzalez recalled. ;</p>
