His wife, Sonia Guzmán, was the first to die. Four others, adults Diana Velásquez and Obdulia Molina and Jonathan Cáceres, 18, and Daniel Enrique Laso Guzmán, 9, were also shot dead in the house. After losing his wife and one of his children, Garcia said he is trying to be strong for his 1-month-old and 2-year-old daughter. “My daughter understands something. It’s very difficult when she starts asking about mom and her (older) brother,” she said, according to the AP.
Garcia said he escaped the gunfire by jumping out of a window. The suspect fled the scene and is still on the run. “He could be anywhere right now,” San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers said. Capers said they are “seeking closure for this family.”
So far, investigators have recovered the AR-15-style rifle Oropesa is believed to have used, but they don’t know if he has another weapon. They also found a phone and clothing in a heavily wooded area, but sniffer dogs lost their trail. On Saturday, they expanded their search to about 20 miles from the shooting site.Read More……
