A Florida woman named Katherine Altagracia Guerrero De Aguasvivas was fatally shot in a flaming vehicle after being abducted during a carjacking at a busy intersection in Homestead. The incident was caught on camera, showing a gunman forcing his way into Guerrero’s SUV. Two hours later, authorities found Guerrero’s charred remains in a torched Dodge Durango at a construction site in Osceola County, along with shell casings and a bullet. The police are still investigating the case and searching for suspects, as they believe the killing was targeted rather than random.

Guerrero, a US citizen originally from the Dominican Republic, lived with her husband in Homestead and worked at a barbershop and beauty salon. The carjacking occurred just before her 32nd birthday, and Guerrero had called her husband to say she was being followed by the assailant. Despite being advised by her husband to keep driving, neither of them called the police to report the incident. The sheriff expressed confusion over the decisions made by Guerrero and her husband during the abduction, as well as the motive behind the attack.

The sheriff’s office released a 911 call from a witness who saw the carjacking unfold, expressing urgency as they reported the incident. The gunman who abducted Guerrero wore a ski mask and brandished a pistol, getting into her vehicle and directing her to drive away from the scene. The police are still waiting for DNA identification to confirm Guerrero’s remains and are actively pursuing leads to apprehend the suspects responsible for her death. Sheriff Lemma emphasized that the violence against Guerrero was intentional and premeditated, indicating that the perpetrators specifically targeted her for unknown reasons.

Investigators are still piecing together the timeline of events leading up to Guerrero’s abduction and subsequent murder, as her husband mentioned she was visiting family in Central Florida. However, authorities were unable to locate any family members in the area, raising further questions about Guerrero’s whereabouts on the day of the carjacking. Despite the tragic nature of the incident, police have not released specific details about potential suspects or motives behind the attack. The community has been left shocked by the brazen nature of the abduction and subsequent murder, prompting increased vigilance among residents in the area to ensure their safety in light of this tragic event.
