Authorities believe they have discovered the body of a woman named Katherine Altagracia Guerrero De Aguasvivas, who was carjacked at gunpoint in central Florida. The incident was captured on video as the gunman forced his way into her vehicle at a red light in Seminole County. The gunman, wearing a black hoodie and mask, was carrying what appeared to be an automatic handgun. It is believed that the gunman exited a green Acura that was following De Aguasvivas’ vehicle.

After the carjacking, De Aguasvivas made a U-turn and the Acura followed. The sheriff believes that the suspects were familiar with a new construction area, as De Aguasvivas began driving in that direction. Approximately an hour and 45 minutes after the incident, authorities were called to the area for a report of a vehicle on fire. The car was so damaged that the vehicle could not be positively identified, but a body was found inside that is believed to be De Aguasvivas.

Twelve shell casings from a gun were found at the scene, indicating that she was likely shot. Authorities do not believe this was a random incident, as the suspects appeared to know exactly who they were following. Before the carjacking, De Aguasvivas had called her husband to report that someone was following her. Despite her husband telling her not to stop anywhere, they did not call 911. Investigators are still trying to determine a motive for the crime.

De Aguasvivas and her husband, who run a barber shop and beauty salon, had no criminal history in the United States. She had traveled from South Florida to central Florida to visit family, but the sheriff noted that they did not know of any relatives living in the area. Authorities are still searching for the Acura involved in the incident and are asking anyone with information to come forward.

This tragic incident has left many questioning why De Aguasvivas and her husband did not contact authorities during the carjacking. The motive behind the crime remains unclear, as investigators piece together the events leading up to her death. It is a heartbreaking situation for her family and loved ones, as they await confirmation of her identity through DNA and dental records. Authorities are continuing their search for the suspects involved in this senseless act of violence.

As the investigation unfolds, the community is left shocked and saddened by the loss of De Aguasvivas. Authorities are working tirelessly to bring justice to her and her family, as they seek answers and closure in this devastating case. They are urging anyone with information to come forward and assist in identifying those responsible for this heinous crime. The safety and security of the community are of utmost importance, as law enforcement works to ensure that such acts of violence do not go unpunished.
