Alexzia Franco Obituary – Two teenagers from Utah, Rohan Sharoon and Pedro Alexis Romero-Bustos, both aged 17, have been charged as adults with murder in connection to the death of 21-year-old Alexzia “Alex” Franco. The charges they face include murder, aggravated robbery, obstruction of justice, and abuse or desecration of a body. Sharoon, who is from Salt Lake City, was additionally charged with possession of a gun by a restricted person.
Another 16-year-old is also under investigation for the crime, suspected of being the one who pulled the trigger. The incident occurred on St. Patrick’s Day when Franco was fatally shot and his body was later found in a Utah County field. The girlfriend of the victim reported that Franco had planned to purchase a gun from the teens and was last seen getting into a white Jeep with them.
The girlfriend heard a gunshot as the vehicle sped away, leading to Franco’s tragic death. Surveillance footage captured the Jeep leaving the scene, and Franco’s girlfriend identified Sharoon as the driver. The vehicle was later found at a Salt Lake City residence, with blood stains on the floor and fresh blue paint on the lower portion.
