An investigation into the carjacking and kidnapping of a Homestead woman who was ambushed at a Central Florida red light — and later shot to death and found in her torched car — began with a widely circulated video taken by a witness earlier this month.
It has since led detectives on a winding trail of drugs, money and murder — with ties to Florida and Puerto Rico.
On April 11, Katherine Altagracia Guerrero De Aguasvivas had driven from Homestead and was stopped at a red light near Winter Springs, a suburban community in Seminole County, when she was carjacked by a masked man pointing a semiautomatic rifle at her. Later that night, her body was found in her burned-out Durango at a construction site in Osceola County, just south of Orlando.
