A 27-year-old Filipino-American woman was shot and killed in front of her two children inside their home in Daly City, California. She was allegedly killed by her partner.

Based on local news reports, Frances Kendra Lucero was shot repeatedly by her partner and the father of her children, identified by the police as Romer Narag.

After family dinner, Lucero had a heated argument with Narag which ended with the 27-year-old man drawing a 9mm pistol and shooting Lucero.

Narag was detained at the San Mateo County Jail after being charged with murder and child endangerment.

The victim’s family described Lucero as a “beautiful mother, daughter, sister, and friend who touched countless lives of those around her.”

“Frances dedicated her life to her children and always spread the love she had to share. She was the most genuine, thoughtful, loyal, and ambitious woman we’ve all been blessed to know,” they said.

“Frances was that friend that would help you celebrate good times and provide nothing but support during the bad times,” they added.
