Tolleson, AZ – An Arizona man is accused of shooting his older brother in an argument concerning his wife’s alleged relationship with the victim. Luis Garcia, 42, was recorded arguing with his 45-year-old brother during a family gathering at a restaurant on Saturday evening.

Garcia purportedly became enraged after viewing a video that suggested his brother was involved with his wife. Reports indicate that following a heated dispute, Garcia pulled out a firearm and shot his brother in the stomach.

The brother was promptly transported to the hospital, where he remains in critical condition but is expected to survive. Garcia’s wife, who left the party to drive her parents home, became concerned when both men failed to answer her calls.

Upon returning to the restaurant, she discovered her brother-in-law lying wounded on the ground. Witnesses reported that alcohol may have played a role in the altercation, and both women observed Garcia leaving the scene in his GMC truck.

Surveillance footage from a nearby business captured audio of the argument and two gunshots. After the incident, police tracked down Garcia’s truck to an apartment in Phoenix and arrested him outside the residence. A firearm and a small bag of cocaine were found during the arrest.

Garcia faces several charges including attempted murder and possession of narcotics. He is currently held at the Maricopa County Jail with a bond set at $750,000. His next court appearance is scheduled for December 1.
