Roland Charles Sosa is accused of shooting and killing 44-year-old Simon Estrada III on Oct. 25, after he and at least three others forced their way into the facility's office in the 4400 block of Parkwood, according to an affidavit supporting Sosa's arrest. According to the court documents, Estrada and two others were inside the office talking when they heard a gunshot. The three individuals then looked at the surveillance camera and saw Sosa — a former handyman employed at the establishment — holding a gun, the affidavit said.
After Sosa walked out of the office, the affidavit says two other suspects entered, demanding more property, including a purse and cellphones. One of the unidentified suspects also robbed Estrada on their way out as the victim was slumped over on the seat,"appearing in obvious distress, bleeding and struggling to breathe," the affidavit said.
Another unidentified suspect was seen on surveillance footage serving as a lookout outside the establishment, according to the affidavit. The court documents say the four suspects fled the scene in a white SUV.
