The weekend's first murder happened in Ladyville on Saturday night at a bar that has a history of violence. On Saturday night 41 year old Wilmer Cisneros along with some friends went to the Blue House Bar from around 7. But things took a turn for the worse after 9 that night when two security guards got in an altercation and Cisneros jumped in. In a short time, he ended up dead on the floor. We spoke with his sister today and she told us what she knows.
Sister of: Wilmer Cisneros
"We know what Mr. Jimenez told us and some witnesses that were there with my brother. He was just taking a beer with his friends and they say is that they went into the bar, they were drinking a beer. In Blue House, you have a pay a fee after 9pm. They reach in there about 7pm on Saturday night. There were no security guards. And about 9pm, the security guards went and approached them when they were in the bar and told Jimenez (not my brother), that they had to pay the fee to stay there. But my brother told them that that were leaving - they were going home. So, they got in a discussion. They didn't want to pay because they were leaving and they had reached there before 9pm. These security got mad and hurt Jimenez first. My brother was telling them to calm down and don't make any problems - that's what the witnesses say, that my brother was trying to calm down the situation and stop the fight. They two security came after Jimenez and then came after my brother and hurt my brother and just kill him. The problem is that my brother is dead and no one can bring him alive. It's very hard for us. What we want is justice, because he (the guards) didn't killed a dog - he took away a human being life."
Cisneros was a supervisor at M&M Engineering for many years. He was the father of 2 girls and an unborn child; his wife is 7 months pregnant.
