Randy Arroyo purchased a car similar to a Mazda RX-7, and met with Vincent Gutierrez and others at the residence of Christopher Suaste to discuss his desire to steal a Mazda RX-7 for parts. The following morning, Suaste, Arroyo, and Gutierrez drove to a nearby apartment complex where a red Mazda RX-7 owned by Air Force Captain Jose Cobo was parked. As Cobo was getting into his car for work, Gutierrez and Arroyo forced thewir way in at gunpoint and drove away from the complex. Cobo tried to escape and was shot by Gutierrez in the back. His body was dumped on the shoulder of the Interstate and the car was abandoned. Later, Gutierrez laughingly explained the murder to friends.
His final statement before death: "I would like to tell everybody that I'm sorry about the situation that happened. My bad - everybody is here because of what happened." He thanked his family for their support and gave one final sendoff to his brother, Phillip: "My brother, where's my stunt double when you need one," he said with a laugh. He then said a brief prayer and was pronounced dead at 6:23 p.m., seven minutes after the lethal drugs began to flow. He requested five cheese enchiladas, two carne guisada tacos, an onion, a tomato, two jalapeno peppers, a bunch of grapes, a pint of butter pecan ice cream and a banana milkshake or strawberry-flavored milk for his final meal.
