Influencer Yarely Ashley Hermosillo died at the age of 27 after being fatally shot in front of her 4-year-old son and husband during a road-rage incident in Glendale, Arizona, involving other drivers last week, AZ Family reports.

Hermosillo, who has more than 300,000 followers across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, was hit by a stray bullet while sitting in the passenger seat of a vehicle last Friday (August 15). The incident took place when two other drivers got into a heated argument at a red light, which led to the alleged shooter, later identified as Jesus Preciado Dousten, reportedly opening fire.

Dousten, 33, was charged with second-degree murder in relation to Hermosillo's death, as well as aggravated assault, misconduct involving weapons (prohibited possessor) and endangerment, according to AZ Family. The suspect was reportedly driving a pickup truck and got into an argument with another driver before pulling out a handgun and firing a random shot.

The bullet reportedly struck Hermosillo in the head after entering through the passenger-side window of the vehicle as it pulled into the lane beside the incident. The influencer's husband drove her to the hospital where she was later pronounced dead from injuries sustained in the shooting.

“My question still is, why would you just randomly shoot the other way? He obviously didn’t know the other car was there,” Glendale police Sgt. Brian Hoskins told AZ Family. “That’s the thing, as gun owners, you have to know where you’re shooting, what you’re pointing at. You know, those are the responsibilities of being a responsible gun owner. You can’t just fire rounds randomly throughout. Specifically, a high, highly populated city.”

Dousten was identified as the owner of the truck involved in the shooting and a search warrant to his apartment resulted in officers finding two handguns. A GoFundMe was launched to help Hermosillo's family pay for funeral expenses, as well as helping her husband provide for their young son, following her death.
