"I believe that if they would’ve listened to my pleas of searching for my father from the beginning… my dad would probably be alive right now," Maria Lopez, daughter of victim Pedro Lopez, told FOX 11.The chaos unfolded Thursday night in the 12100 block of Foster Road after a shootout with deputies at a suspect wanted for attempted carjacking. The suspect was shot by deputies but was still able to make it inside a home.
