In our first segment we told you about the teenager who was killed in Lord's Bank on Sunday night. Well, that small village also saw the murder of a 69 year old business owner 24 hours earlier on Saturday night.
At 8:25, Otto Jergen Peterson - who owns the Lords Bank Grocery and Laundry was held up by two men. It seems he put up a fight - and then shortly after, his stepson who lives behind the story heard gunshots. He ran to the store and told us what he saw:

"You said that when you got there, he was still conscious?"
Mario Martinez - Step-son of Deceased
"Yes, he was still breathing. He was still alive."
Jules Vasquez
"And he spoke to you."
Mario Martinez
"He told us not to worry, that everything will be okay. I helped him get to the hospital. We put him in a vehicle, and took him to the hospital, but he died on the way."
Jules Vasquez
"What were those moments like? I can't even imagine."
Mario Martinez
"You know, it's so hard to know. I still can't believe what happened. He was always there for us. I believe that all the people who met him before, they will understand me too. They will agree with me because he was so humble. He was so much a hard-working man. He was a special - I just can't believe what happened."
Two expended shells were recovered and no arrests have been made...
