Kyle Chester De Los Reyes, 23, has been arrested and held without bail after allegedly stabbing three of his family members to death in Baldwin Park, California. The tragic incident occurred on December 26, 2023, around 6:48 p.m., in Pomona, Los Angeles County.
The victims of this brutal attack have been identified as Paul Sebastian Manangan, 16, Rona Nate, 44, and Chantelle Narvaez, eight.
The relationship between De Los Reyes and the victims has yet to be fully revealed, nor have authorities confirmed a specific motive for the killings. Details about the incident remain scarce as investigators work to determine the circumstances that led to the tragic deaths.
Following the arrest, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman issued a statement condemning the violence and promising to do everything possible to ensure justice for the victims.
Hochman emphasized the emotional toll such violent crimes have on families and communities, saying, “Violent crime not only robs us of innocent lives, but it also threatens the very fabric of our community.” Let this be a clear message: those who commit heinous acts of violence will face the full extent of the law.”
The investigation into the case is still ongoing as law enforcement officials seek answers, but for the time being, the Baldwin Park community is shocked by the loss of three innocent lives.
It is unclear whether De Los Reyes will face additional charges, or if there are any new details about his motivation and state of mind at the time of the killing.
