The second victim of a two-vehicle crash during a police chase in Pomona was identified Friday by county authorities.
Marc Trejo Saldivar, 26, was identified as the second victim by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s office. Jennifer Loera-Zarco, 25, was identified as the first victim on Thursday.
According to the Pomona Police Department, officers responded at about 9:30 p.m. Wednesday to a domestic violence call in the 400 block of East 10th Street, about a quarter-mile east of Garey Avenue.
“When officers arrived and were speaking with the victim, the suspect returned to the location in a truck, driving recklessly and intentionally struck a parked patrol vehicle,” according to a police statement. “The suspect then fled the scene, initiating a police pursuit.”
Officers chased the suspect – identified by police as Marshall Judson of Pomona – south on Garey Avenue, where his truck collided with a car near the intersection of Garey Avenue and County Road. Both people in the car, reported to be a silver Ford sedan, were pronounced dead at the scene by Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel.
Judson was taken into custody near the scene of the collision. A firearm “and miscellaneous firearm components” were found during a search of his truck, police said.
He was booked on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter, assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer, driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, driving without a valid license, felony evasion and firearm-related allegations.
According to Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department inmate records, Judson was being held in the city jail in lieu of $50,000 bail.
Anyone who witnessed the crash or has information that could assist investigators was urged to call Pomona police at 909-622-1241. Anonymous tips can be submitted through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
