Tehachapi police on Thursday arrested a man wanted in a Bakersfield killing, according to the Bakersfield Police Department.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Victor Farias, 33, was arrested by Tehachapi officers pursuant to a warrant for his arrest on suspicion of homicide, assault with a deadly weapon, child abuse charges and domestic violence charges, and BPD officers and detectives took custody of him and took him to jail, BPD said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
BPD said Farias\u00a0fatally wounded a woman during a domestic violence incident the night of March 25 in the 7000 block of College Avenue in Bakersfield.<\/p>\n
She was later identified as\u00a0Yolanda Rojo, 30, of Bakersfield, by the Kern County Coroner’s Office. The coroner reported she died at 10:37 p.m. at Kern Medical, almost an hour after she was stabbed.<\/p>\n
Farias fled and his vehicle was found abandoned in the area of Highway 58 and Tucker Road near Tehachapi just after 11:30 p.m. March 25 after an apparent hit-and-run collision, BPD said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
