SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Authorities are asking for the public's help in identifying and locating the person or people responsible for the 2022 killing of 37-year-old Abram Santos in Mountain View.
On Feb. 13, 2022, just after 5 p.m., the California Highway Patrol Border Communications Center received a 911 call regarding a man just off the roadway at southbound Interstate 805 at the 43rd Street off-ramp in the Mountain View area, according to Lt.

When CHP officers arrived at the scene, they found a man, later identified as Santos of San Diego, down in the brush with apparent trauma to his upper body, Shebloski said. San Diego Fire-Rescue Department personnel arrived at the scene, but Santos was pronounced dead.
