Police said the victim was found dead in the trunk of a car in the garage. Two people have been arrested after a 97-year-old grandmother was found dead in the trunk of a car in her own garage, police say. On Friday, deputies with the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office in California responded to a home after neighbors said they hadn’t seen the 97-year-old resident in a while, KCRA stated.
When deputies arrived, they met Brain Wiggins, 40, and his girlfriend, Dozsha Beckwith, 31, outside the home, according to the report. Wiggins told police that his grandmother left in an Uber to visit family in an assisted-living facility. However, deputies saw that the home was ransacked and several safes appeared broken into, according to the report. A section of carpet was also removed.
Police detained the duo as they continued to investigate. Authorities found the unnamed victim dead in the trunk of a vehicle parked in the garage, according to the report. Investigators said Wiggins and Beckwith forced their way into the home. When the victim told them to leave, they beat her and put her corpse in the trunk of a car.
