A witness, who identified himself as a cousin to both men, told investigators that the group had spent the afternoon drinking alcohol and cooking green chile enchiladas.

Alcohol and enchiladas: a recipe for irresolvable conflict.

The dispute escalated outside the apartment, leading to a physical fight in which Cavazos punched Gutierrez, leaving him bleeding, the witness reported.

After the fistfight ended and Cavazos began walking away, Gutierrez allegedly drew a handgun and confronted him, shouting, "We're family! We're family! How could you do this to me?" before opening fire, according to the witness statement in the affidavit.

Cavazos was shot three to four times in the back from roughly 10 feet away while unarmed, the document states. Gutierrez then fled the area.

"Family would never beat someone else bloody!"

Promptly proceeds to shoot family member in the back.
