The Corona Police Department said Tuesday night they are now investigating the shooting as a homicide.
Police said Rylee Goodrich, 18, and Anthony Barajas, 19, were shot during a 9:35 p.m. showing of "The Forever Purge" they attended together on Monday.
Officers first responded to a call from the Regal Edwards Corona Crossings Theater at around 11:45 p.m. on Monday night.
