A man who fatally shot two people in Napa last week before turning the gun on himself has died from his injuries, police said Friday.

Baltazar Rangel Juarez, 28, died Wednesday of injuries related to a self-inflicted gunshot wound after he shot and killed Georgina Padilla, 38, of Napa, and Ralph Andino III, 54, of American Canyon, on Sept. 26, Napa police said.

Officers responded around 9:45 a.m. that day to the 700 block of Lincoln Avenue and found the victims outside a home suffering from gunshot wounds. Both were pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators identified Juarez as the suspect and saw him driving a vehicle near the intersection of Second and Juarez streets that afternoon. An officer tried to pull the car over, but Juarez fled and eventually drove into Kennedy Park, where the car became inoperable, police said.

A standoff ensued and Juarez shot himself after refusing to surrender. He was then taken to a hospital to be treated for his injuries, according to police.

Investigators cannot say what the motive for the double shooting is.
