The boyfriend of a “faithful” mother-of-two could be pictured for the first time after he was accused of shooting her dead in front of their two children.

Frances Kendra Lucero, 27, was shot and killed by her partner Romier Narag, 27, in front of their children, ages three and four, on March 6 in Delhi City. California.

Investigators say Frances was shot by Naragh with a 9mm handgun as she ran toward their home around 7:30 p.m.

Francis was killed by four shots, according to the Daily City Police Department, and Narag was arrested a short time later.

Investigators say Narag shot Francis with a 9mm handgun as she ran toward their home around 7:30 p.m.

He is charged with murder, child endangerment, possession of a concealed firearm in a motor vehicle and concealed loaded weapon.

Narag is currently behind bars at Maguire Correctional Institution and will appear in court on March 16 in connection with the incident.

Their two children are in the custody of the victim’s family and are being evaluated by social workers.

It is not yet clear what the row between the pair was about, with social media postings of them posing with their two young children.

In tribute to Frances, her sister wrote: “To my best friend. I never imagined that I would be typing something like this for you. You were my best friend, my (sic) food, my second mom, my platonic soulmate.

“I will love you and miss you forever. I would just like to hug you one more time. Get another conversation with you. I will forever be blessed to be able to call myself Frances Kendra’s little sister.

“Kuya, dad, me and mom will be fine. You rest now ate. I pray you don’t hurt anymore. I pray you are at peace. My guardian angel. I love you so much.”
