A California man is facing murder charges for allegedly hitting a woman repeatedly with his SUV in a Starbucks parking lot, which later killed her, say authorities.
In the early morning hours of Sept. 21, a deputy with the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office found a woman lying face down in a Starbucks parking lot in Millbrae, the Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.
She was rushed to San Francisco General Hospital where she underwent surgery.
During the subsequent investigation, the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office located footage from a surveillance camera that showed an SUV hitting the victim “at a high rate of speed and then running her over several more times,” the statement says.
A patrol deputy later located an SUV matching the description of the suspect’s vehicle parked in front of a residence in Millbrae, according to the statement.
The vehicle had damage consistent with a recent collision, the statement says.
