According to police, Bonilla's brother called police and told them Bonilla had a pair of knives and was threatening their mother, Paula Prado. KSNV reported that officers set up a perimeter around the apartment, where Bonilla eventually emerged from holding two knives, one in each hand, that were covered in apparent blood.

When police went into the apartment, they found Prado covered in stab wounds. She was pronounced dead on scene, according to KSNV. The brother told police that Bonilla was arguing with Prado while possibly "tripping out from either drugs, alcohol or both."

Neighbors told KSNV that they could hear someone yelling at Prado as she responded, "no," several times.
