Manuel and Dulce Gonzalez were overjoyed to finally tie the knot and celebrate their union in an intimate backyard party in St. Louis, Missouri. However, their special day took a terrifying turn when two masked gunmen unexpectedly crashed the reception.
As the wedding guests were enjoying the festivities, the gunmen suddenly burst in through a fence shared by the bride and her sister. They demanded money and ordered everyone to remain still. In a horrifying turn of events, they opened fire and shot Manuel, the groom, multiple times in the head.
The couple's family and friends were in shock and immediately called for help. Manuel was rushed to the hospital and is currently in critical condition. A GoFundMe page was set up by the family to help with the medical expenses and provide support for Dulce and their two young children.
"He was getting married with a small family ceremony at her home with their two small children. The family was robbed at gunpoint and her husband was shot in the head," the GoFundMe page reads, pleading for prayers and support.
The suspects fled the scene on foot without taking any money or valuables from the family. "They took nothing, yet they took everything from us," said Yaribeth Pena, the bride's sister, in an emotional interview with FOX 2.
The community was quick to show their support, with the GoFundMe page raising over $20,000 in just a few days. The family is also asking for anyone with information or CCTV footage to come forward and assist with the ongoing investigation by the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department.
This terrifying incident has left the family devastated and in need of prayers and support. They are urging the community to be vigilant and help bring the perpetrators to justice. Let us all come together to stand by the Gonzalez family in their time of need.
