Surveillance footage revealed the incident, resulting in Aguila's arrest days later for second-degree murder.
Omar Rene Aguila, 69, was arrested and charged with second-degree murder with a weapon and possessing a firearm by a convicted felon.
Investigators discovered that his murder stemmed from a romantic affair between the man and Aguila's wife that began in 2019.
While mounted on a blue mobility scooter, Aguila made his way toward the man's car. A short argument broke out before Aguila pulled out a gun and shot him multiple times.
