The family of Alexander Maceo-Sanabria, a security guard who tragically lost his life after being shot at a Las Vegas supermarket, has shared heartfelt memories of the compassionate and dedicated individual he was. Maceo-Sanabria was known for putting others first and his unwavering commitment to keeping people safe while working at Marketon on Decatur Blvd.
Described as the pillar of his family, Maceo-Sanabria’s loved ones are currently preparing for his final resting place and honoring his legacy as a hero. In a selfless act, he donated his organs to save other lives, showcasing his kindness even in death.
The man responsible for the shooting, Miguel Narro, is facing serious charges including attempted murder, robbery, and battery with a deadly weapon. On the other hand, Luis Lopez, the individual Maceo-Sanabria was trying to stop from stealing, is facing robbery and battery charges after an attempted murder charge was dropped.
Luby Grunden, a spokesperson for Maceo-Sanabria’s family and colleague at Marketon, emphasized his positive and jovial personality, stating that he had a gift for brightening any room. She expressed disbelief at the lesser charge faced by Lopez and called for all involved in the incident to be held accountable.
With Maceo-Sanabria being the sole provider for his partner, children, mother, and brother in Cuba, his family is facing financial challenges in the wake of his tragic passing. A GoFundMe has been set up to assist with medical and funeral expenses, with Marketon pledging to match donations to support the family.
As the family navigates the complexities of the case and funeral arrangements, they are seeking the understanding and support of the community they have been a part of for many years. Despite the challenges ahead, they are grateful for the outpouring of love and assistance during this difficult time.
