Man, 27, who was arrested for having sex with a stranger on a Las Vegas Ferris wheel is murdered in a carjacking while driving his stripper fiancée home from work

The Houston, Texas man who made headlines last month when he was caught having sex on a Las Vegas Ferris wheel has been murdered in a violent carjacking while his fiancée witnessed the horror. 

Philip Panzica, 27, left Vivid, a strip club where his girlfriend works as a stripper around 5am Saturday morning when the deadly incident happened.

Panzica's fiancée came out of the strip club with her earnings for the night, looking for her boyfriend when suspects Bryant Christopher Watts, 28, and Aaron Jones, 31, told her he was already in her black Kia Sorrento.

Panzica's girlfriend was reportedly with him in the car Saturday morning when they left Vivid strip club in Houston and Panzica was shot dead 

Watts and Jones, who had been in the club with Panzica, then escorted the girlfriend to the car and got in the back seat while she got in the passenger seat next to her boyfriend. 

When Panzica started driving away from the strip club, Watts allegedly pulled out a handgun and pointed it at the driver saying 'You need to come clean' before shooting him several times. 

The girlfriend told police that the two men then got out of the car to dump Panzica's body at the side of the road.  

They proceeded to order his girlfriend out of her car and then took off with the SUV and her cash, and she flagged a bus driver down for help.  

Panzica (left) and Bozant had a brief falling out in Las Vegas. He went out drinking and met 21-year-old Chloe Scordianos (right) who he took on the Ferris wheel for a risque ride   

A sheriff's deputy spotted the stolen Kia later that day and the two men were apprehended after a car chase. 

Watts reportedly confessed to robbing and shooting Panzica and now both suspects face charges of capital murder.  

The fiancée has not been identified by name, but reports from last month state that she is 36-year-old Mistie Bozant. 

This is just the second time in two months that the couple were in the news. 

After travelling to Las Vegas on February 5 to get married, the couple had a brief falling out when Panzica learned that his girlfriend was pregnant with potentially another man's child (she later turned out not to be pregnant at all). 

He proceeded to go drinking and gambling by himself, downing 'four or five margaritas' before meeting 21-year-old Chloe Scordianos from Hicksville, New York and taking her for a ride on the High Roller Las Vegas Ferris wheel. 

Bozant forgave Panzica for the Ferris wheel incident and spent $3,000 bailing him out of jail two days later 

Panzica's girlfriend survived the early Saturday morning incident. Panzica and his girlfriend pictured about in a photo posted to Facebook  

'One thing led to another' and the pair were soon arrested for engaging in sex acts, 550 feet above the Las Vegas Strip. 

'It wasn't planned, it was just, I felt it,' Panzica, with Bozant by his side, told KTNV about the incident. 'We get up to the highest point, and we were like, "We're golden!"' 

When the ride was over Panzica and Scordianos, were arrested and charged with Commission of Certain Sex Acts in Public.

While the incident may have been enough to break up many couples, Bozant forgave her boyfriend and spent $3,000 bailing him out of jail two days later. 

His lawyer, Bennair Bateman, said during a court hearing earlier this month that his client had agreed to plead guilty to a misdemeanor, according to the Las Vegas Review Journal. 

Scordianos however has said she will not take the deal and will go to trail, as she believes she didn't do anything wrong.  

Police say surveillance cameras captured Panzica and Scordianos in the act and security warned the couple to stop - and people in another car shot cellphone video 

Panzica planned to plead guilty to charges associated with the February Ferris wheel incident
