John Kai Jr., a prominent Marana businessman, was shot and seriously wounded in May by a disgruntled former employee during a meeting about his severance package, according to court documents.
Kai, 69 was shot in the chest and head during the meeting in a office of Kai Enterprises in Marana, the documents state. An office manager who was sitting in on the meeting was threatened with a gun and pushed into a partition wall.
Kai lost his right eye to trauma and will require further medical treatment, say court documents filed in Pima County Superior Court.
The former employee, Ruben Duran Muñoz, 63, turned himself in to authorities at a port of entry in Nogales on May 24.
On June 6, Muñoz was indicted on two counts of attempted first-degree murder, two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault with serious physical injury, and burglary.
