Canyon Country Woman Shot to Death
A 20-year-old woman was shot to death in Canyon Country, apparently as she lay in bed with her 1-year-old daughter, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said Tuesday.
The body of Miriam Perez was found by a family member at the home in the 27300 block of Camp Plenty Road, at 1 a.m. Tuesday, Sgt. Ronald Spear said. The relative, who was not identified by authorities, called the Sheriff’s Department.
Perez had been shot once in the head. The child was not harmed, Spear said. Deputies had not established a motive for the killing.
