RIVERSIDE, Calif. (TCN) — A 19-year-old man was taken into custody for allegedly killing a pregnant 16-year-old with his car during a confrontation with the victim’s family.
According to the Riverside Police Department, on Feb. 2 at 11:45 p.m., officers responded to the 1500 block of Gregg Place for a hit-and-run and found the teen victim suffering from severe injuries. Medics transported her to a nearby hospital, where she died. Doctors delivered her child, who is in critical condition.
Police located the suspect, Isaac Blackhorse Garcia, in Moreno Valley and arrested him on charges of murder, hit-and-run resulting in death, and unlawful sex with a minor. Investigators learned Blackhorse Garcia has been in a “sexual relationship” with the victim’s underage sister. When he dropped off his girlfriend at her house, her family reportedly “approached his vehicle,” which caused him to drive away and hit the victim.
Riverside Police believe Blackhorse Garcia may have sexually abused other minors.
KTLA-TV reports Blackhorse Garcia’s girlfriend is 15 years old. The victim has been identified as Kaylie Corona, who was described in her GoFundMe as “eagerly looking forward to becoming a mother and meeting her baby.”
Police said Blackhorse Garcia is being held without bail.
