According to witnesses who saw the couple drive up in a white in color Suburban, the couple were arguing before they both collapsed. A resident in the area made the 9-1-1 call and at least four EPPD units and an ambulance were summoned to the area which was immediately secured and blocked off.
Officers arrived to find Romo unresponsive and Chancey still breathing.
Eagle Pass Police Chief Alberto Guajardo informed The News Gram that Judge Melendrez had ordered an autopsy and the body was transported to the Webb County Medical Examiner's Office in Laredo while Chancey remains in critical but stable condition at the Fort Duncan Regional Medical Center.
The case remains under investigation by the EPPD Criminal Investigations Division.
