Breaking Windshields
March 14, 2019
Saturday March 9, Keila Flores of age 33, was in the car with her boyfriend, Christopher Rodriguez, and her three children when a rock crashed through her car windshield around 8:40 p.m. on Interstate 35. Someone reportedly threw a large rock from a railroad overpass. The rock busted through the windshield and crushed her while her boyfriend and children sat helplessly inside the vehicle. She was sitting in the front passenger seat when it happened.
“We were headed back to Waco on 35 northbound. All of sudden something just strikes the window,” said Rodriguez told KWTX. “An explosion just come right through the window. I didn’t know what it was. I look over and I see Keila, and she is laying there unresponsive.” She was taken to the hospital with some significant injuries. Temple police said they were unable to identify the person who threw the rock through the windshield. Keila was pronounced dead just after 10:30 a.m. Her kids and boyfriend are safe and have no injures. Her family asked an autopsy to be done. The police haven’t released any information on a possible suspect. They are investigating the incident as an homicide.
