WESTMINSTER (CNS) - A 26-year-old Colorado woman pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter Wednesday and was immediately sentenced to six years in prison for running over her boyfriend in Westminster.
As part of her plea deal, a murder charge against Saleena Isabelle Carra was dismissed.
Police were called about 5:20 a.m. Jan. 3 of last year regarding a possible fatal hit-and-run in the 6500 block of Walt Street, near Edwards Street and the San Diego (405) Freeway, police said. When officers arrived they found 41-year-old Oscar Sandoval of Westminster in a driveway.
Police determined Sandoval was intentionally struck by a vehicle, and they began looking for an older model gray or black Jeep Grand Cherokee with custom chrome wheels and a roof rack with damage to the front and rear passenger side.
Police identified Carra as a suspect and began working with police in Arcada, Colorado, to arrest her, police said. Police impounded the suspected vehicle used in the killing, police said.
