drunkenly driving a 2014 Dodge Ram that slammed into an apartment building<\/a> in the 6600 block of Rose Avenue in May of 2022. <\/p>\nIslas, who was 24 years old at the time of the incident, allegedly fled the scene on foot, according to police. <\/p>\n
The crash resulted in the death of Long Beach residents Jose Palacios-Gonzalez, 42, and his daughter Samantha Palacios. Jose was declared deceased at the scene while Samantha was rushed to a local hospital but later succumbed to her injuries. <\/p>\n
The reward was previously offered at $10,000, until the Board of Supervisors approved a motion by Supervisor Janice Hahn to increase the amount to $20,000 in 2025. Rewards are set to expire after a designated time. The reward has now been reestablished through a motion by Hahn in the hopes of finding Islas. <\/p>\n
\u201cJose and Samantha\u2019s loved ones have lived with the pain of this unimaginable loss for more than four years now, and still have not gotten justice,\u201d said Hahn, whose fourth district includes the city of Long Beach. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe are asking anyone who may have any information on where Octavio is or where he may have gone to please share it with detectives.\u201d <\/p>\n
The Los Angeles County District attorney\u2019s office has issued a warrant for Islas\u2019 arrest on suspicion of two counts of felony manslaughter, one count of felony driving under the influence and one count of felony hit and run. <\/p>\n
Anyone with information is urged to contact Commander Paul Baum of the Long Beach Police Department Special Investigations Division at (562) 570-7449.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors unanimously voted to reestablish a $20,000 reward for information leading to the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":389865,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[237,5744,9342,157081,157082,1776,103654,16005,157080,131,133,132,7227,1555,87401,8830,54537,2489],"class_list":["post-389864","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-arrest","tag-count","tag-daughter","tag-fatal-long-beach-crash","tag-felony-manslaughter","tag-information","tag-islas","tag-jose","tag-k-reward","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news","tag-los-angeles-county-board","tag-man","tag-man-police","tag-motion","tag-samantha","tag-scene"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/389864","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=389864"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/389864\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/389865"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=389864"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=389864"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=389864"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
