Ariel Bojorquez, 19, was killed in a car-to-car shooting in San Bernardino on April 20, 2016. He and his girlfriend, 17-year-old Rosa Isela Chavez, were driving a dark-colored Honda on 29th Street when a white four-door sedan approached and occupants opened fire. Several gunshots struck their car; the Honda crashed into a residential yard and hit a tree and a shed. Bojorquez was found dead at the scene; Chavez was taken to hospital and died shortly afterward.

Witnesses said the shots came from a semi-automatic weapon. Police noted few leads and did not initially classify the killings as gang-related, citing a lack of strong evidence tying the attack to gangs. The two were counted among San Bernardino’s 21st and 22nd homicide victims for 2016, a year of rising violence in the city. If anyone saw the white sedan or has information about that night, please share details with investigators.
