Police say Mercedes Vanesa Guevara drove through a red light June 11 at Highland Avenue and Medical Center Drive at a high rate of speed, and struck the pregnant victim in the crosswalk. A witness, who did not want to be identified, told CBS2 she heard a crash and a gut-wrenching scream. She ran to the victim, but found her dead. Authorities say Mercedes Guevara was arrested Monday. (Photo via SBPD_ “She was already laying lifeless on the ground, there wasn’t nothing no one could do for her,” said the witness.

SAN BERNARDINO (CBSLA) — More than a month after a mother’s body was found stuffed inside a wooden box and dumped in a San Bernardino parking lot, police say they’ve arrested a suspect. San Bernardino police went through days of security footage in the search for 34-year-old Marlene Santellan. The young mother was wrapped in a plastic tarp, stuffed inside a wooden box and left at the scene. Santellan left behind four kids. Now, finally, there’s been some relief for her family. San Bernardino police have arrested 49-year-old Rico Sanchez after a tireless, month-long investigation uncovered a video and paper trail they say led right to the suspect. Detectives say someone driving a distinct U-Haul was caught on camera dumping Santellan’s body at the scene June 2. They say that distinct U-Haul was rented by Sanchez’s mother just hours before, and the suspect is seen on camera at a local hardware store purchasing items that were later found with Santellan’s body. The victim’s sister and father were stunned by what evidence police revealed. “I don’t think she deserved this,” her father, Ralph, said through tears. He says what’s even more hurtful is that his daughter’s accused murderer showed up at a fundraiser for her burial expenses. “He was at the car wash. He actually shook my hand, we talked. He said, ‘My condolences. I’m sorry to hear,’” he remembered. Police have not released a motive; however, Santellan’s sister believes it she was murdered over money, telling CBS2/KCAL9 a day before Santellan was killed she won $20,000 at a local casino, where Sanchez was allegedly by her side. She hopes the truth will come out. “I just love her. She’s my sister,” she said. “And I just pray justice is gonna be served for her.” Sanchez is scheduled to appear in court Tuesday.

YONKERS (CBSNewYork) – Major renovations at a popular Westchester garden have turned the attraction into one of the area’s hidden gems. Cynthia Zak says Untermyer Gardens in Yonkers brings back happy memories. “My mom used to bring me here 40 years ago in a stroller and push me around when I was born,” the Hastings on Hudson resident said. Zak showed off the Persian garden to a friend, days after the free city space repaired and restored the venue’s water canals. “This has really impressed me. It’s just so unbelievable,” Nader Soliman said. Garden organizers raised $500,000 in private donations to fund the nine-month project. They tell CBS2’s Cindy Hsu the plumbing was 100 years old and pipes were leaking all over. “We ripped out the plumbing. We ripped out the concrete, rebuilt the bridges, put in a new lining, and basically re-built the whole thing,” Untermyer gardens conservancy president, Stephen Byrns explained. This is only phase one of an extensive face lift. Organizers are turning to the city and state to fund the rest of the project. They’ll need $2.5 million to recondition the swimming pool and also fix the “temple of the sky” – something visitors hope to see happen. “I think it’s awesome. Continue to do so. Put the tax dollars to use on things like this,” Patricia Bardaghawi of Yonkers said.
