A Santa Ana woman was killed when she was accidentally shot in the chest with a BB rifle by her boyfriend Thursday morning. Authorities have not decided what charges to file against the boyfriend. Her family might want to file a wrongful death suit.
At around 11 a.m. at the 1000 block of S. Austin Street authorities responded to reports of a shooting.
Cpl. Anthony Bertagna of the Santa Ana Police Department told reporters that when authorities arrived they discovered an unconscious woman with a small puncture wound in her upper chest.
Martha Socorro Marin, a 32-year-old, was rushed to UC Irvine Medical Center in Orange, where she was pronounced dead. It is unclear if the woman died at the hospital or at the scene.
Per reports the unidentified 34-year-old man, her live-in boyfriend, alleged to authorities that whatever the circumstances were he did not mean to shoot her.
Despite the boyfriend’s allegations, authorities are still investigating the accident.
“At this point, we can’t think of any time where we’ve had a victim die of a BB gun. So was this done at close range? Was it accidental? Was it on purpose?” he told reporters.
Later, authorities told reporters that in the past, they’ve been called to the victim’s house but did not delve deeper into the subject for unknown reasons.
Huey Lai confirmed to reporters that in the past the couple has hit rough spots for all people in the neighborhood to see. He’s seen them take their argument from their home out to the public.
“It did come out to the street. They were cussing out loud. So loud that everyone heard around this neighborhood,” Lai said.
Reports stated that the couple had two children. Ariel Rosel told reporters he’s friends with the couple’s 12-year-old son.
“I felt kind of depressed after looking at him cry because I’ve never seen him cry,” Rose said.
At this time, the suspect is in custody until the DA’s office decides whether to file charges.

A man sustained serious personal burn injuries after being attacked while on the parking lot of a 7-Eleven. Authorities are investigating the mysterious attack.
Detectives are looking into the incident of a 63-year-old man who was sitting in his vehicle going about his day with the windows slightly lowered when another man tossed an incendiary device inside through one of the opened windows causing an explosion.
Witnesses say the SUV caught fire right away. They then through collaborative efforts worked to pull the burn victim from the fiery vehicle. They saved his life but his body suffered serious burns and had to be hospitalized.
When paramedics arrived on the scene, they rushed the burn victim to a nearby hospital. He remains at a local hospital in critical condition.
Authorities told reporters the accident happened minutes after 5:00 p.m. on Friday near PCH and Clark Avenue in Long Beach.
Raymond Sean Clark, a 38-year-old as identified by reporters, is being held in custody. He is a possible suspect to the incident.
“The suspect was found at a nearby location taken into custody. I will be able to get more information as the investigation continues,” Sgt. Aaron Eaton told reporters.
Investigators have not released a motive for the attack.
“There’s no information they had a relationship and no incident prior to this crime, so right now it looks like a random act,” according to Sgt. Eaton.
Authorities continue to investigate the scene. It is unknown if the suspect was under the influence of alcohol or drugs at the time of the incident.

At least four people were injured Sunday after a person crashed a vehicle through the front of a Wal-Mart Supercenter in San Jose. After wrecking, the driver got out of the car and began to assault bystanders.
It all began when a red Oldsmobile Cutlass sedan crashed without warning through the front automatic sliding doors of the store shortly after 11:15 a.m. It ended up near the pharmacy section at the storefront on top of a beer display prior to coming to a stop.
San Jose police Officer Albert Morales told reporters that the unidentified driver then exited the car and used a blunt object to attack people.
When authorities arrived on the scene they arrested the rampaged driver.
Detectives were on the scene to help piece together the details of the wreck. They reported that the driver was in his thirties but were unable to determine the speed the vehicle was traveling prior to crashing into the store front. The vehicle penetrated about 20 feet into the storefront at a time when about 70 people were shopping inside.
Morales told reporters that at least one person suffered serious injuries. He was unsure as to what extent of seriousness. And three other people were injured as well, one of which was a store employee. None of the people involved suffered life-threatening injuries.
Prior to making a grand entrance through the store, the driver fist sideswiped customer Sharon Kaye’s vehicle at the store’s parking lot. Witnesses stated the driver made several runs around the parking lot prior to driving between poles at the entrance and crashing into the store.
“At first, I thought I may have done something to anger him while driving,” Kaye told reporters. “But then I realized he was out to get into the store.”
Authorities enclosed the crash scene with yellow police tape and store employees covered the front doors with large pieces of cardboard during the investigation.
Kory Lundberg, A Wal-Mart spokeswoman told the news reporters that the store was closed for several hours, and confirmed that one employee was among those hurt.
“We’re obviously very concerned about the associate who was injured,” the spokeswoman said.
Shopper and witness Tianna Doan told reporters that the employee was a cashier who was hit with the object and had a head injury.
Car accidents can happen unexpectedly to anyone, anytime, even inside of a superstore. If you were injured in a wreck, contact a San Jose car accident lawyer who is ready to fight.
