A Mexican influencer was shot dead inside her beauty salon during a TikTok livestream, moments after she voiced fears about being killed. Valeria Marquez was known for showcasing a lavish lifestyle, often posting images aboard yachts, next to private jets, and shopping at upscale boutiques.
"Maybe they were going to kill me," the 23-year-old said during the livestream from her salon in Jalisco on Tuesday. "Were they going to come and take me away? I'm worried."
Shortly after her remarks, a man off-screen called out, "Hey Vale," to which she responded, "Yes?" and then muted the video.
Ms Marquez was handed a stuffed animal and a Starbucks coffee bag before she was shot in the head and chest by a man who had earlier posed as a delivery driver, according to Denis Rodriguez, spokesperson for the Jalisco State Prosecutor's Office.
Mr Rodriguez told CBS News that the attacker had arrived earlier on a motorcycle with another man, claiming to deliver an "expensive gift" to the influencer. After handing over the items, the man left, only to return and carry out the fatal shooting.
