According to KTVU, the deadly confrontation occurred in Daly City and involved Narag pulling a 9-millimeter handgun on Lucero. Chillingly, the incident unfolded while their children, aged 3 and 4, watched. After a family dinner, an argument escalated, leading to the tragic outcome.
Details remain sparse, but what is clear is the stark horror of domestic violence insinuating itself into the lives of the innocent. Narag, who was booked into the San Mateo County Jail, is not only charged with murder but also with child endangerment.
