What started as a typical Saturday night at the laundromat turned violent in a matter of seconds. Newly obtained surveillance video from XXL Washers on San Mateo Blvd. and Zuni Rd. showed exactly what led up to 15-year-old Michael Rowe being shot and killed back in December.
KRQE News 13 spoke to Rowe's sister days after the shooting, and she said what happened was a senseless act of violence. 'There's never anything that anybody can do that should cause you to take another person's life,' said Sarah Rowe in December 2024.
Video that night showed Rowe and two girls sitting, waiting for their load to finish up. Moments later, a woman, Jamel Coriz, walks up to the trio. A criminal complaint said that's when an argument begins over the use of a washing machine.
Coriz went to punch one of the girls, and for more than five minutes, the group continued to throw punches and kicks, back and forth.
Eventually, Coriz walked outside and left, but it didn't end there. Six minutes later, Coriz returned with her boyfriend, Oscar Orozco. Orozco walked inside the laundromat and confronted Rowe, who was now alone, and chased him outside.
Orozco chased Rowe around vehicles at the back of the parking lot before he fired a gun at Rowe's back. Video from outside the laundromat picked up Coriz yelling at Rowe for starting it, before Coriz and Orozco got back in the car and took off.
Rowe was taken to the hospital but died shortly after. Orozco is behind bars awaiting trial.

Investigators reveal disturbing details surrounding private jet crash that killed The Devil Wears Prada drummer, 5 others
The runway lights that would have helped guide a doomed private jet carrying The Devil Wears Prada drummer Daniel Williams and music industry big shot Dave Shapiro before it crashed in San Diego hadn't been working since 2022, federal investigators revealed. The jet was also coming in too low in foggy weather and struck power lines as it attempted to descend into the Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport, according to the investigators. The details on the May 22 crash that killed all six passengers were laid bare in the National Transportation Safety Board's preliminary report published Wednesday. 4 Williams performs at the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival at San Manuel Amphitheater on June 30, 2012, in San Bernardino, California. Getty Images In addition to the lower-than-average descent and non-existent runway lights, the NTSB determined several other factors also led up to the tragedy — including the pilot not discussing alternate airport weather conditions with the air traffic controller. The pilot had acknowledged that weather conditions weren't ideal and debated diverting to a different airport while discussing the visibility with the controller, according to audio. 4 Debris covers the ground after a small plane crashed into a San Diego neighborhood. AP 4 Authorities work the scene where a small plane crashed into a San Diego neighborhood, setting several homes on fire and forcing evacuations along several blocks early Thursday, May 22, 2025. AP But the pilot declared 'I think we'll be alright' before going ahead with the landing attempt. The FAA had posted an official notice for pilots that the runway alignment lights were out of service, but NTSB investigators noted that had been the case since 2022 due to delayed repairs. It wasn't immediately clear if the pilot, who had been based at the airport, knew the lights were out of service at the time. The NTSB added, too, that the plane was only about 60 feet above the ground — almost 200 feet lower than required — when it struck the power lines. 4 Former The Devil Wears Prada drummer Daniel Williams shared haunting photos to his Instagram story of the plane he was taking to California hours before it crashed. @xcadaverx/Instagram An official cause of the crash hasn't yet been determined. The NTSB's final report will be issued later this year. With Post wires

Antonio Brown, Miami shooting victim entangled in years-long legal war, records show
Former NFL star Antonio Brown shot at a man outside a Miami boxing event last month, police say. Newly obtained court records reveal that the two weren't strangers: In fact, there's been a burgeoning beef between Brown and the victim, namely a lengthy legal battle that dates back to 2022 when the man spent a month behind bars in a Middle Eastern jail after Brown falsely accused him of stealing $3 million worth of jewelry. Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu, a 41-year-old who designs and sells jewelry, met Brown in May 2022 when he was invited to accompany boxer Floyd Mayweather to an exhibition fight in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Brown was there to promote his music career and was going to rap during Mayweather's ring walk before the fight. As the pair got to know each other, Nantambu let Brown sport a custom-made pendant with a diamond chain worth $122,000, which Brown posted to social media, court records reveal. On several occasions, Nantambu attempted to get the chain back, but Brown didn't return it; instead, Brown gave Nantambu two of his gold chains as collateral. Brown then contacted Dubai police and told them that Nantambu had stolen $3 million worth of his jewelry, according to the filing. Nantambu was arrested and held in jail without bond on theft charges. He was released a month later — and his charges were dropped — only after showing prosecutors evidence that Brown's claim was false. READ MORE: Where's Antonio Brown? Facing attempted murder, wanted NFL star left the country Three years after their ordeal, Brown, 36, shot at Nantambu after a dispute escalated on May 16 after an event hosted by social media influencer Adin Ross. After the shooting, Brown said on social media that he was attacked by people trying to steal his jewelry. Brown is wanted on an attempted murder charge, according to a seven-page warrant signed on June 11 by Miami-Dade Circuit Court Judge Ariel Rodriguez. When Brown is arrested, his bond will be set at $10,000 plus house arrest. The Herald's review of Brown's latest posts indicate that he has been in Dubai. Miami Police Chief Manny Morales told the Herald that detectives have been in contact with Brown's attorney and expect him to be taken into custody once he returns to South Florida. In August 2022, Nantambu took Brown to Broward circuit court, seeking the return of the diamond chain and pendant as well as damages for his wrongful detention in Dubai. Brown, the lawsuit says, was the last person seen with the jewelry and wore it at the Mayweather fight — while Nantambu sat in jail. The suit also accuses Brown of taking the items that were on Nantambu's person when he was arrested, which comprised of a gold chain and $6,000 in cash. A judge awarded Nantambu just under $970,000 in damages after Brown failed to respond to the lawsuit. That judgment, however, was overturned after a procedural issue. Brown filed for bankruptcy in May 2024, barring a retrial of Nantambu's lawsuit. A copy of Nantambu's lawsuit was attached to a filing in Brown's ongoing bankruptcy case in Fort Lauderdale federal court. Records show Brown stated that he has less than $50,000 in assets and owed anywhere from $1 million to $10 million— the bulk of the listed debt in damages stemming from lawsuits. The Miami Herald reached out to Nantambu and his attorney but hasn't received a response as of Wednesday afternoon. An attorney for Brown couldn't be reached. On social media, Brown has accused police of 'making up fake charges to get publicity.' 'Tried to steal my jewelry' The day after the shooting, Brown said in a post on X that he was 'jumped' by people 'who tried to steal my jewelry and cause physical harm to me.' Brown was detained — but not arrested — after the gunfire outside the venue, a warehouse located at 221 NE 67th St. in Miami's Little River neighborhood. 'Contrary to some video circulating, Police temporarily detained me until they received my side of the story and then released me. I WENT HOME THAT NIGHT AND WAS NOT ARRESTED,' Brown said in the post. 'I will be talking to my legal council and attorneys on pressing charges on the individuals that jumped me.' Video posted to social media showed the All-Pro wide receiver appearing to hold a gun and running out of frame. Seconds later, gunshots were heard. Detectives reviewed security footage that captured Brown and two others attacking Nantambu before the shooting, according to the warrant. Security broke up the fight, and Nantambu walked away. Then, Brown took a gun from a security guard before running after Nantambu. Video captured Brown chasing Nantambu to the sidewalk and firing two shots from close range. Nantambu, the warrant says, ducked as shots rang out. When searched, no firearm was found on Brown, although police found two spent shell casings and a damaged right-handed holster outside the venue, according to the warrant. Brown was released because the man shot, later identified as Nantambu, was no longer at the venue. Nantambu told police he left to seek medical attention. Per detectives, Nantambu said he tried to leave after Brown attacked him. But Brown, he asserted, chased him with a gun and fired at him — possibly grazing his neck. The two struggled over the gun before ending up on the ground, Nantambu told police. When officers arrived, Nantambu said Brown hid the weapon under a dark piece of cloth and walked away. READ MORE: Ex-NFL star Antonio Brown is no stranger to police, discipline in his career Over the years, Brown — a Super Bowl champion wide receiver who was in the NFL for more than a decade — has been enmeshed in a litany of bizarre on-field incidents and off-field controversies, some of which led to legal woes. Most notably, in 2020, Brown pleaded no contest to assaulting a moving truck driver over a payment dispute at his Hollywood home. He was sentenced to two years of probation and was ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation and to participate in a 13-week anger management program. Two years after the attack, a civil court jury ordered Brown to pay the truck driver $1.2 million in damages Brown, a Miami Norland High graduate, had his NFL career abruptly ended in 2021 when he ran off the field while suiting up for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers against the New York Jets.
