During the live stream, Valeria told her followers that, hours earlier, a man had arrived on a motorcycle claiming to be a deliveryman and trying to hand her an “expensive gift,” requesting that she be present in person.
The suspect’s face was reportedly covered, which increased the victim’s concern.

“Maybe they were going to kill me,” Valeria said during the livestream
In the same live broadcast, the young woman shared her anxiety about the situation: “Güey, maybe they were going to kill me,” she said. “Who’s going to give me something? (…) Something expensive?” she asked, with irony and insecurity. “Were they going to kidnap me or what? I was worried. My best friend was killed. I was intrigued about who the hell sent me this,” she added, visibly nervous.
The situation had started hours earlier, when a friend named “Érika” called Valeria saying a man wanted to deliver a gift by hand. Since no one was at the salon at the time, the supposed deliveryman said he would return in an hour and insisted that the influencer be present, as it was something “very expensive.”
Tense moments before the attack
During the livestream, Valeria continued interacting with her followers and another woman who was at the ‘Blossom The Beauty Lounge’ salon, when she received a message saying a gift was on the way. “Hurry up, I’m worried, I want to leave,” she said, showing anxiety and haste.
Shortly after, a first deliveryman arrived with a snack and a stuffed animal. Valeria tried to guess who the sender might be, speculating whether it could be a fan.
The fatal attack caught live
Minutes later, another man approached. Valeria, visibly suspicious, smiled nervously and said, “He’s coming!” The man entered the salon and asked: “Valeria?” to which she replied “Yes” and walked toward the phone that was streaming live. She muted the audio, and was then surprised by fatal gunshots fired by the supposed deliveryman.
The video quickly went viral on social media and sparked outrage among fans and viewers. The Jalisco police are investigating the case, which may be linked to previous threats or stalking. So far, the shooter has not been identified.
