UPDATE Dec. 3:
Fox 4 has received the police report that details what deputies said led up to the fatal shooting.
According to court documents, a woman said she was hanging out in the victim's bedroom when he got a call. Charles Tyree, the victim, took a phone call and then said he was going outside to talk to Joel Elias Herrera-Godinez — the suspect.
The woman said a few seconds later, she heard two gunshots. When she looked out the window, she saw two men getting into an SUV.
Detectives found Tyree shot in the chest in the driveway where he was pronounced dead.
As detectives continued their investigation, the woman said the two men — the suspect and the victim — worked together. About a week ago, she said she overheard Tyree tell someone on the phone that he believed Godinez stole a $200 check from him.
The sheriff's office later interviewed Tyree's business partner. They had hung out the night of the shooting. He told detectives that Tyree took a call from Godinez and they were arguing.
The business partner told deputies Tyree used the suspect's car to take his driver's test that day. But, the business partner said Godinez wanted money from Tyree.
According to the report, Tyree agreed and said to come by the house later.
The documents said Godinez then said, "it wasn't about the money, it was about respect," the report said.
The business partner said he doesn't get involved with his employees, so he didn't know what was going on, but said Tyree was one of this best friends.
Deputies asked the business partner if he knew of any weapons that Godinez carried, and he said he carries a 9mm pistol in his car.
According to the sheriff's office, a 9mm casing was found next to Tyree's body in the driveway.
Around 4:50 a.m., hours after the shooting, deputies found Godinez at his father's home in Arcadia. The report said he openly confessed to shooting Tyree, but it was "self-defense," he told the sheriff's office.
The sheriff's office said in exchange for letting Tyree use his car, Godinez said he was supposed to get THC vapes in return.
Godinez said he went to Tyree's house with a juvenile and brought his run with him. In the report, he claims Tyree went to his truck and heard him "racking his own handgun."
Godinez told deputies Tyree pointed a gun to Godinez's thighs. That's when Godinez said he shot Tyree in the chest, grabbed Tyree's gun and left.
When deputies asked Godinez about the handgun, he said he ditched them on the side of the road by Circle-K.
Godinez is charged with murder.
