Yesenia Torres, 44, was shot and killed outside Burger Point on West Mill Street in San Bernardino, California, on January 10, 2025. A gunman tried to take her purse and struggled with her beside her vehicle before chasing her around it and shooting her as she ran toward the restaurant. She died at the scene.

Police initially investigated the killing as a robbery. Investigators later alleged that it was a murder-for-hire plot arranged to resemble one, tied to a contentious divorce involving multimillion-dollar assets. Police and prosecutors said the plot had been discussed for more than a year.

Five men were charged with murder, including Torres' estranged husband, Sergio Reveles, and his business partner, Juan Perez. The charges include special-circumstance allegations of lying in wait, financial gain and robbery. All five pleaded not guilty and were held without bail.

Five suspects have been arrested in connection with the death of a Hispanic woman in an alleged murder-for-hire scheme in San Bernardino.

Yesenia Torres, 44, was shot to death on January 10, 2025, outside a restaurant in the 400 block of West Mill Street, in front of terrified customers and employees, a homicide that was recorded by the business's surveillance cameras.

A man, later identified as Gerardo Llamas, 31 , got out of the suspicious vehicle and approached the Hispanic woman with a firearm.

After an exchange of words, the subject tries to snatch the bag from the woman, who gets out of his truck and they begin to struggle, at which point several people try to intervene, but they move away at the moment when several shots are fired .

According to authorities, a total of nine shots were fired at the 44-year-old Hispanic woman , but a shell casing jammed in the gun when the victim was defending herself.

The subject chased Torres around the truck, and when she tried to run towards the restaurant to get to safety, Yesenia was hit by gunfire .

Police said the suspect continued to shoot the woman repeatedly. Paramedics who responded to the shooting said the Hispanic woman died at the scene .

“These criminals targeted the victim in a murder-for-hire plot stemming from a contentious divorce involving one of the suspects, investigators said.

During the investigation, the suspects' vehicle was found abandoned in the parking lot of a Wal-Mart on the east side of the city of San Bernardino.

Surveillance cameras at the store showed the suspects entering the store to change clothes and then escaping in another car.

Police identified Gerardo Llamas as the man who shot Yesenia Torres and Arnoldo Ruelas, 54, as the driver at the scene of the shooting.

Arrest warrants for Llamas and Ruelas were issued on Jan. 16 and served at Llamas' Bakersfield home and Ruelas' Los Angeles home by undercover teams.

Evidence detectives found in the vehicle determined that a third suspect, identified as Reynaldo Ruelas, was Arnoldo's brother .

Rolando worked for Juan Perez at a local company in San Bernardino, which was owned by Sergio Revelas and his ex-wife, the shooting victim, Yesenia Torres.

When they searched the suspects' homes, they found large amounts of cash in each location .

San Bernardino County District Attorney Jason Anderson said five suspects are under arrest in connection with Torres' murder .

Gerardo Llamas, Arnoldo and Reynaldo Ruelas were arrested on January 21, while Juan Pérez and Sergio Revelas were detained on February 13.

They aren't worth as much if they have bullet holes in them.

That chick should have gotten herself a gun. She was spunky and could have taken care of all of them.

Well, “G”, I was mistaken. Even more so in cost depending on its package, model and options..

There was a very RARE opportunity to run away from the car towards the red building and then behind it. However, she didn't use that opportunity but started to run around her car. Darwin gave her a lesson.
