<p>His sudden death sparked grief and outrage, with hundreds gathering in Acatlán de Pérez Figueroa to bid him farewell.</p>
<p>During the funeral, a grieving woman placed her hand on his coffin in an emotional moment.</p>
<p>His football teammates carried his casket to the field where they had shared many memories and honored him with one final goal.</p>
<p>More than a dozen of his teammates escorted him to the plaza where they used to play, saying goodbye in the way he would have cherished.</p>
<p>Alexander was shot in the head by police without warning while purchasing a soda. Officers did not give him a chance to stop or remove his face mask before opening fire. He died instantly, as police failed to provide any first aid.</p>
