The Story

Tragic Loss on Mother’s Day: Ana Carrillo Rodríguez (Alma’s Daugther)

On Mother’s Day 2024, the Huntington Park community experienced a heartbreaking tragedy that left us all in shock and sorrow. Ana Carrillo Rodríguez, a beloved local resident, was killed in a hit-and-run incident on the very streets where she grew up. Ana, 39 years old, was a cherished daughter, sister, and friend, known for her kindness and vibrant spirit.

That evening, Ana was riding her black and blue motorized scooter, walking her German Shepherd, as she often did. It was between 8 and 9 PM when the tragedy struck. As she traveled south on Hope Street, near California Avenue and in front of Mariscos El Levanton, an unknown driver hit her and fled the scene. The driver responsible for this senseless act remains at large, leaving Ana’s family and friends devastated and seeking justice.
