There's two bodies. There's one right
here.
>> Go ahead and set the sword down for me,
dude.
>> When a frightened tenant reports
gunshots inside his own home, deputies
race to the scene only to discover a
brutal double homicide. But as
detectives begin piecing together the
events leading up to the shooting, they
unravel a story that defies all logic.
>> I heard a creepy voice saying he wanted
to do something to my balls.
>> On November 7th, 2025, in Bernalillo
County, New Mexico, police receive a
desperate 911 call from a man afraid to
leave his bedroom.
>> Tell me exactly what happened.
You heard them inside? How many shots
did you hear?
Okay, I'm going to have the deputies
come and make contact with you.
>> Officers are immediately dispatched to
the residence. However, before they can
enter the property, an unexpected
encounter with an armed resident stops
them in their tracks.
>> Sheriff's office.
Did you call, brother?
What's going on, dude?
>> I did my part.
>> What's that?
>> I did my part.
>> You did your part.
>> Yeah, for the Marines. There's
bodies.
>> What?
>> There's two bodies. There's one right
here.
>> Go ahead and set the sword down for me,
dude.
>> down, brother.
>> All right.
>> Yeah, set the sword down.
Do you have any other weapons on you?
>> Yeah, stop right now.
>> Hey, stop. Get your hands out of your
pockets right now. Walk towards us.
>> us.
>> Walk towards us now.
>> I shouldn't have to tell you.
>> Walk towards us now.
>> The man carrying both a sword and a
handgun would later be identified as
25-year-old Alexis Hernandez. While
deputies secure Alexis, a desperate cry
from the home suddenly shifts their
priorities.
>> Yes.
>> I'm going to sit
Go, there's a kid. Go.
What's up, buddy?
Que pasa?
What's wrong, buddy?
What's wrong, dude?
>> [snorts]
>> What's wrong, dude?
>> They hurt me, papa.
>> Where's your dad at?
>> [snorts]
>> Where's your
Where's your dad, buddy?
>> The little boy appears too frightened to
answer the officer's question. So, aside
from Alexis's claim that there are two
bodies inside, the deputy has no idea
what awaits him as he rushes through the
front door.
>> Who's all here at, buddy?
>> They hurt me, mama.
>> The deputy immediately discovers a body
covered in blood. The victim would later
be identified as Hector Rios, the
homeowner. Nearby, the officer finds a
second child still asleep in bed. Police
escort both of Hector's children to
safety.
>> Come here, buddy. Come on. Come outside.
Come outside, buddy. Come on. Come here.
It's okay. It's okay. Come here.
It's okay. Come here.
It's okay.
It's okay, buddy.
Hey, buddy. Hey.
Come here. Come here.
>> With both children safely in deputy's
care, additional responding officers
begin clearing the rest of the property
in search of anyone still inside.
>> We have one male
bleeding. He's face down in the kitchen
of the house.
>> SHERIFF'S [snorts] OFFICE, COME OUT NOW!
COME OUT NOW! KEEP YOUR HANDS UP! COME
OUT OF THE ROOM NOW!
>> STEPPING OUT WITH A RIFLE.
>> STEP OUTSIDE RIGHT NOW!
>> TWO MEN, including the 911 caller,
eventually emerge from their rooms. The
men are temporarily detained, but
officers know the most disturbing
discovery may still lie ahead.
>> We're going to go check right now.
>> You want to breach that door, please?
>> Hey, dog.
Watch that.
>> Open door.
>> Get that door, too.
>> I'm on it, buddy.
>> Sheriff's Sheriff's office. Yep.
>> The second victim would later be
identified as Yorsay Toledo, another
tenant of the residence. His body bears
the unmistakable signs of an
extraordinarily violent attack.
>> You want to see this dead guy or this
dead guy first?
>> Start at the back.
>> So right literally right in here and
there's casings all along the floor.
There's more when you get inside.
>> There's 1 [snorts] 2 3 4 5
6 damn.
>> Oh wow.
>> Yeah, he got lit up.
>> That's not brain hanging from the
ceiling, is it?
>> No.
>> No.
>> I just saw something red like dangling
like yeah.
>> I mean
>> We're at a minimum of at least 12 in
here.
>> Yeah.
>> After examining Yorsay's body,
detectives count roughly 12 gunshot
wounds, an unusually high number
considering the Glock that Alexis
surrendered held only six rounds, but
Yorsay's isn't the only one riddled with
bullet holes.
>> Yeah, you can tell right here.
Jesus Christ.
Oh, there's casings everywhere.
>> All right.
>> I haven't even seen poor Hector yet,
dude.
Pretty much easy to
see kind of what happened.
>> Despite the detective's optimistic
statement, the investigation is far from
over. After releasing both detained
witnesses and taking the children to the
station, the lead detective sits down
with Alexis hoping to gain insight into
what led to the shooting. However, when
asked about his living situation as one
of Hector's tenants, Alexis's answer
quickly takes an unusual turn.
>> I heard that guy in
on the other side of the wall, you know,
like stalking me and I don't know.
>> I don't know.
Really?
Okay. So, do you know who that guy is?
Like a name? Like do you know his
>> I think the real
I thought I knew him and had your reals?
>> Yeah. Okay.
>> I don't think I really know him at all.
>> Alexis would later state that he and
Hector had always gotten along. He would
even go as far as saying that he viewed
Hector as a father, but just a few
months before the shooting, a seemingly
ordinary day would mark the beginning of
a growing unease surrounding Hector.
>> A few months ago, he started getting
some signs at work that I might have
been in trouble, you know, like
>> What do you mean?
>> I stock the little show, so like for
people, and then people grab them, and
then they put it in the box for the
orders to be
>> Okay.
>> And then they said a window, window,
window, window.
And then I finally decided to check the
windows.
And I guess he started uh
suspecting something.
>> Though Alexis's concerns over Hector
suspecting something began at work, they
certainly wouldn't end there. If
anything, they only worsened while he
was at home.
>> I think all the lights in that room are
cameras.
>> And in my ears, camera.
>> And then I checked the windows, and then
I realized that those things are sealed.
This bullet hole she has the the the
keys to the door. I heard him and then I
don't know, and like through the wall, I
heard a creepy voice saying he wanted to
do something to my balls, and I don't
know, and it was just so scary.
>> I can imagine. That would be scary.
[clears throat]
>> After what Alexis interpreted as a
deeply personal threat, he left the
residence hoping a visit with his
parents would ease his fears. It would
do quite the opposite.
>> I talked to my mom about it, but she
didn't really believe me, and she said
that they knew him.
>> Okay. And you knew Hector?
>> Apparently, but
they I don't think they knew him at all.
I started seeing a lot of signs, and
the signs pointed out that I had to I
had to end him or he was going to end me
and my family.
>> Alexis struggles to explain what exactly
the sign said. So, rather than press him
further, the detective redirects the
conversation to what specifically led to
the shooting.
>> When I went to work [music] and came
back, he left me
a message that he was going to keep the
message.
It was It was a dead cockroach. And I
remember that one time his his son
he was afraid of cockroaches, and he
said not to be afraid into cockroaches,
you got to step on them.
>> Mhm.
>> And so, I figured out the message that
he thought he would have killed
>> Alexis would then leave his home, go to
a gas station, buy a Marine Corps saber
from an unknown seller, arm himself with
a handgun, and prepare for the worst.
>> And so, today, obviously, when uh this
happened, what was Hector doing that
made you think you needed to shoot him?
>> He was taking me into the room, told me
to go with him, and the other guy was
right behind me.
I don't know that there's no way out.
>> Okay. Do you remember where you shot him
at?
>> I I think in the head. I don't remember.
I don't know how I was
>> Okay. So,
the other guy,
um why did you shoot him?
>> I'm pretty sure he was with Hector. They
were
They They were going to get me.
>> According to Alexis, the threat ended
with those first shots. The shooting,
however, would not.
>> After the shooting,
uh did you go to your car at all?
>> Uh
I went to the garage, and I went back
and again. I don't know what I was going
to do. I didn't know what to do cuz I
was afraid.
>> Did you reload one magazine or both?
>> Both.
>> Alexis then went back inside to deliver
a second volley of gunfire. According to
an autopsy report, it was substantial.
Hector Rios was shot four times in the
head and 12 times in the body. While
Yurcejc was shot once in the head, with
the other nine going to his body. After
listening to Alexis's chilling claims,
the detective would end the interview.
On November 24th, 2025, Alexis Najera
Hernandez was charged with two counts of
first-degree murder, as well as two
counts of recklessly caused child abuse.
He pleaded not guilty to all charges.
However, all criminal proceedings have
been stayed while the court conducts an
evaluation of whether Alexis is
competent to stand trial.
