The suspects, described only as three Hispanic males and two Hispanic females, entered the Lucky Star Game Room and began playing the electronic slot machines.  Without warning, one of the males attacked Mr. Portillo, a security guard.  As the two struggled over Mr. Portillo's weapon, a second male suspect joined in the attack.  During the struggle, Mr. Portillo was shot.  The male suspects then robbed the individuals inside the game room before all five suspects fled in a silver two-door Honda Accord and red Nissan Sentra with tinted windows and a rear spoiler.
