Calling the April 8 killing of Eliyanah Crisostomo on Interstate 880 in Fremont a senseless crime, police and prosecutors laid out how they connected the three suspects to the shooting.
Inside the SUV was Eliyanah and her family members, all on their way to a birthday party. A bullet struck Eliyanah in the chest. Her 7-year-old brother next to her was not hit. The parents stopped seconds later when they saw a CHP officer on the side of the freeway, but Eliyanah didn't make it.
The CHP credited fast police work and technology for catching the suspects. Police in Santa Cruz spotted the car with the same license plate three hours after the shooting and pulled it over after a short chase. "We want to prevent incidents like this from happening, but when they do, we’re going to do everything we can to solve them," Beauchamp said.
