The person in the passenger seat of the white car told officers Cintron was the man who pulled up alongside them — and fired shots into the car. That person is Lexi Rivera — and she spoke with FOX6 News. The complaint indicates Rivera “had been cut by shattered glass from the car windows. Rivera told officers she has known Cintron since 2015 — and “they have a child in common.” Rivera indicated since she and Cintron separated, “the defendant has engaged in a series of physically assaultive, abusive, and threatening behaviors” directed at her.
When Rivera described to officers what happened that Friday afternoon, she said Rodriguez shielded her from the gunfire — and she “could hear the rounds striking the white car.”
The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office indicated Rodriguez had been shot eight times. They ruled the death a homicide.
