Monica Spear Photos: Miss Venezuela and ex-husband dead after robbery, 5 YO daughter injured


Miss Venezuela Monica Spear and her ex-husband have been killed in front of their 5-year-old daughter in a robbery.

The incident happened Monday night on a roadside on the port near Puerto Cabello in Venezuela.

Spear, 29, and Irish ex-husband Henry Thomas Berry, 39, had stopped at the roadside after their car broke down when their car crashed. Robbers attacked the family, and the pair is said to have resisted robbery when they were shot to death. Their daughter was in the car but escaped with a bullet wound to her leg.

The pair was waiting for a tow truck to arrive when they were attacked and murdered by the robbers. The assailants are unknown.

The family was in the country on vacation and was traveling in a gray 2002 Corolla Toyota. They were on their way to Valencia when they were attacked.

Spear won the crown for Miss Venezuela in 2004 and also appeared in America's Telemundo network. Her most recent work was on "Pasion Prohibida." She also starred in Telemundo's "Flor Salvaje" in 2011. Spears had been splitting her time between her native country and the U.S.
