Tragedy Strikes Sisters in Morning Shooting | San Diego News

A sixteen-year-old pregnant woman, Adriana Jimenez, declared brain dead after a shooting, has been taken off life support — leaving her six-year-old daughter and sister Maria Fernanda, who survived with a grazed throat, reeling from the tragedy. The sisters were shot early one morning outside their apartment, just as they prepared for a gender reveal party tied to Adriana’s upcoming 23rd birthday. Authorities have arrested Walter Francisco Rodriguez Garcia on attempted murder charges, now likely to be upgraded after Adriana’s death. With no clear motive yet, the family grapples with grief, funeral arrangements, and repatriating Adriana’s body to El Salvador — while launching a fundraiser to support their daughter through this unimaginable loss.
