Tragedy struck Stockton this week as a mother and son were found dead in what police believe to be a domestic-related double homicide. The victims have been identified by the San Joaquin County Medical Examiner’s Office as 43-year-old Alice Montejano and her 19-year-old son, Reuel Huerta.
The investigation began late Monday night when Stockton police responded to reports of two unresponsive individuals along the 2500 block of Belleview Avenue. Officers pronounced both victims dead at the scene.
Authorities have named 38-year-old Julio Ceasar Valdez as the suspect in the killings. He is believed to be driving a gray sedan and remains at large as of Wednesday.
Police are urging anyone with information about Valdez or the incident to come forward. The community is asked to remain vigilant as the investigation continues.
