UPDATE MAY 31: People in a tight-knit Las Vegas neighborhood are drawing even closer to each other after their neighbor was shot and killed outside her house in daylight.
The Clark County coroner has identified her as 60-year-old Sheri Aoyagi of Las Vegas. Her cause of death was ruled a gunshot wound to the chest.
A friend said the woman was a flight attendant. She was gunned down outside her home as her husband watched in horror.
Friends also remember Aoyagi as an animal lover, who cared for and rehabilitated dogs.
"She was an angel," says friend Christina Detisch.
Detisch says when Aoyagi wasn't caring for her dogs, she was caring for her husband, Stan, who uses a wheelchair.
Today, Stan is still shaken up after witnessing his wife being shot.
"He relives it every day," their priest tells 13 Action News.
Gertrude Kasalo said she attended church with the woman who was shot.
"They've taken away a very good friend of ours that not only helped us and was not only friends with everybody at church, but she helped a lot of people."
The victims’ house had been ransacked, but it is unknown at this time if any personal property was taken. It appeared the victim was shot as the suspects were leaving the scene of the burglary.
The suspect's vehicle was described as a white Chrysler 300. The car was later found unoccupied in the 6600 block of West Washington Avenue.
Meanwhile, neighbors says the area has seen a lot of break-ins recently. Police are also looking into whether any of them are related.
