The 25-year-old reported that her boyfriend had violently abused her over a two-day period, tying her up inside his apartment and sexually assaulting her.

When the alleged assailant left the apartment, the victim managed to escape and alerted neighbors, who called the police, Rivera said.

Patrol officers spotted the assailant’s white BMW X5 about 5 years later, and began pursuing the vehicle.

“Officers negotiated with him for about an hour and tried to convince him to surrender,” Rivera said.


“Despite the officers’ efforts, the suspect drove off again, crossed into San Clemente, and then (doubled) back southbound on I-5, near the Basilone Road exit.”

“At about 6:15 a.m., the suspect attempted to drive off again, but the armored vehicles stopped him,”

“Before officers could get the man to surrender, he shot himself in the head.”
