Woman killed, set on fire in unsolved homicide in Southern California
Authorities are asking for the public’s help in locating the person or persons responsible for the gruesome homicide of a woman whose body was found engulfed in flames on an offramp of a Southern California highway almost a year and a half ago.
The body of the Karla Terron was discovered just before 5 a.m. on the southbound Hoskins Road offramp of State Route 99 in Bakersfield on Dec. 17, 2022, according to a special bulletin released by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
An autopsy performed later determined that the victim’s cause of death was not the fire, but multiple stab wounds.
Terron had last been seen alive at a local bar in the 100 block of North Hagar Street in San Fernando, though authorities did not say when exactly that was.
Anyone with information about this investigation or the whereabouts of the person or persons involved is urged to contact LASD’s Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500.
Those wishing to remain anonymous can use the L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-222-8477 or may leave tips online at L.A. Crimes Stoppers.
