On Saturday night, Flores called the police to report her boyfriend had been shot. She initially said he had told her he had been shot and asked her to call for help, police said.
When officers arrived, she changed her story and admitted to shooting him after learning he had allegedly been cheating on her, court paperwork stated.
The victim denied the allegation and told police he has never had an affair and questioned why his girlfriend would shoot him.
He told officers he owned three 9-millimeter guns and said he didn’t think his girlfriend owned a handgun, let alone know how to use one.
HANDGUN BOX FOUND IN VICTORIA’S SECRET BAG
Armed with a search warrant, officers opened a closet at the home and found a 32-millimeter handgun box in a Victoria’s Secret bag near the woman’s clothing.
Inside the bag, police found sales receipts from Feb. 16, 2017, showing she had purchased the firearm at the Cabela’s store in Glendale.
The receipts showed she had also bought 32-caliber ammunition, which was also found in the bag. Another empty box of 32-caliber ammunition was found in the woman’s purse, police said.
