HOME GARDENS, Calif. — A woman who was wanted in connection with the murder of an elderly Riverside County woman last October and had fled the state was apprehended in Colorado last week and is now facing murder charges.

Deputies from the Jurupa Valley Sheriff’s Station were first alerted to the deadly incident at 4:29 a.m., after the critically injured victim, Sandra Ross, 69, of Home Gardens, was rushed to an area hospital for a treatment, Riverside Sheriff’s Central Homicide Unit Sergeant Rick Espinoza reported yesterday.

“The victim … had been transported to a local hospital by paramedics, where hospital personnel discovered and reported her injuries,” Espinoza said of the incident, which occurred on the 12000 block of December Court, northeast of McKinley Street and Indiana Avenue.

Jurupa Valley Station investigators continued their investigation until Oct. 30, when Ross “passed away as a result of her injuries,” said Espinoza.

“At that time, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Central Homicide Unit responded and assumed the investigation,” Espinoza continued.

During the course of their investigation, officials identified Kayla Mylissa McCall, 27, of Home Gardens, as being responsible for the injuries that led to Ross’ death.

Espinoza did not specify how the two women knew each other or if they were related.

Investigators learned McCall was no longer in California and was believed to have fled to Colorado.

On Friday, Jan. 8, officials from the Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Team in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, located and apprehended McCall, taking her into custody for Ross’ murder.

Online jail records indicate McCall had not yet been booked into a Riverside County Jail as of this report.

The Sheriff’s investigation is active and ongoing and no additional details have been released at this time. 

Anyone with information regarding this investigation is encouraged to contact Central Homicide Investigator Darryl Robertson at (951) 235-2162 or (951) 955-2777. Callers can refer to incident file number E202770008 and can remain anonymous.
