A man and a woman have been charged with murder after four people were shot dead in a Dallas apartment Sunday, where a baby was also found unharmed.
Police responded to reports of a shooting in the northwest of the Texan city at 7pm where two men and two women were discovered with fatal gunshot wounds.
Azucena Sanchez, 20, and Artemio Maldonado, 18, were arrested three hours later after Dallas Police located their vehicle a few miles from the apartment complex along Villaverde Avenue.
The victims have been identified as Juan Diego Cruz, Lupe Cruz, 19-year-old Jazmin Borja-Santos and a fourth victim only identified as Fatima.
An arrest warrant affidavit revealed that Sanchez was the ex-girlfriend of Juan Diego Cruz and that they were in a custody dispute over their child.


The authorities have not released the victims’ names as their families are being notified and have not provided information on a possible motive for the shootings.
Sanchez and Maldonado were taken to Dallas Police Headquarters and to the Dallas County Jail and each charged with Capital Murder.
Family members of the victim are said to have told police Sanchez and Maldonado had made multiple threats against them.

A neighbor told police investigators he thought he heard gunshots around 1 a.m. but did not call police. Security video from the complex showed a Black Ford Mustang, believed to belong to Maldonado, leaving the complex around 1:11 a.m.
Detectives found the Mustang in a different apartment complex parking lot a few miles away and took both suspects into custody as they were walking toward the car just after 10 pm. A Glock handgun was found between the driver’s seat and door, police said.
The infant wasn’t injured but was taken to the hospital as a precaution. The baby is now in the care of Child Protective Services.
Maldonado admitted to shooting all four of the victims in his police interview, the affidavit said.
Sanchez told police they thought the apartment was empty and they broke in through a back bedroom window to take money before they were confronted by the victims and Maldonado shot them.
They took an empty box from a bedroom closet believing it contained money as they left the scene.
