A fitness model was tragically killed outside a gym in broad daylight, sparking a manhunt for her shooter and leaving unanswered questions about the motive.
She was outside the Hardcore Fitness Gym in the López Lucio neighborhood of Tijuana, Mexico. The attack occurred at approximately 8:35 a.m. December 5, 2024, in plain view, as bystanders witnessed the chilling scene unfold.
According to reports, an unknown assailant approached Orozco’s vehicle and fired multiple shots through the window and car door. Witnesses said the suspect then fled the scene in a grey Chevrolet HHR. Orozco was rushed to a local hospital by ambulance, but she was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.
Authorities quickly launched a manhunt to track down the suspect. Homicide Unit Prosecutor Miguel Ángel Gaxiola Rodríguez confirmed that the investigation points to a suspect who acted alone. However, witnesses at the scene claimed the crime involved more than one person.
No arrests have been made so far, and the investigation is ongoing. Orozco, originally from Sinaloa, Mexico, was known for her growing presence as a fitness model and social media influencer.
She amassed a substantial following online, with over 200,000 followers on Instagram and TikTok, as well as more than 10,000 followers on Facebook. Her content focused on fitness, fashion, and collaborations with various sportswear and aesthetic clothing brands.
Her death has raised questions about her safety in the weeks leading up to the attack. In August, Orozco made a public statement on social media, claiming that she had been a victim of physical abuse at the hands of her former partner, Héctor Villegas, who was once the director of Tijuana’s municipal police.
