In a devastating turn of events, the city of San Antonio was shaken by the discovery of a pregnant 18-year-old and her boyfriend found dead on Tuesday afternoon in the Medical Center area. The Leon Valley Police Department, in the midst of a two-day search, had listed both as missing and was actively pursuing leads to locate them.

The grim news was conveyed by a family member to KENS 5, disclosing that the bodies of Matthew Guerra and Savanah Nicole Soto were found inside a vehicle. San Antonio Police Chief William McManus confirmed the tragic discovery, stating, "There are two people in the car. They are deceased. We believe it is the missing woman and her boyfriend." While an official identification is pending, the news has left both families grappling with an unimaginable loss.

The circumstances surrounding the deaths remain shrouded in mystery, and McManus described the crime scene as "very, very perplexing." Although detectives are considering the possibility of murder, no conclusive findings have been established. The bodies were located in the parking lot of a northwest San Antonio apartment complex, following a tip from an individual who spotted the vehicle. Police estimate the car had been in the parking lot for three to four days.

Rachel Soto, Savanah's grandmother, expressed the family's anguish, revealing they are still awaiting answers from the police regarding the events that led to Savanah's tragic demise. "She was a good girl; she didn’t deserve to go this way, especially with her baby," Soto lamented. "He was an innocent child; nobody deserved this."

The troubling sequence of events began earlier in the week when a CLEAR Alert was issued by Leon Valley Police for Savanah, who was a week overdue when she was scheduled for induction on Saturday night. Concerns escalated when she failed to appear, prompting a citywide effort to locate her. Savanah was last seen on Friday around 2 p.m. at the Valencia Lofts apartments in Leon Valley.

The urgency intensified on Christmas night as Savanah's family organized a search, starting at the apartment complex where she was last seen. Family and friends rallied, driving through the area, desperately trying to uncover any leads. Gloria Cordova, Savanah's mother, shared the heartbreaking reality that her daughter, who was eagerly anticipating motherhood, had completed the nursery and planned to have her in the delivery room.

As Saturday approached with no response from Savanah, Cordova's attempts to reach her daughter went unanswered. Alarmed, she visited Savanah's apartment, finding no response. Filing a police report with Leon Valley Police, Cordova expressed her growing concern, especially as attempts to contact Savanah's boyfriend were also met with silence.

This heart-wrenching incident leaves a community grappling with questions and mourning the loss of two young lives. The investigation into the circumstances surrounding their deaths is underway, and as the city mourns, the hope is for a comprehensive understanding of this tragic chapter and justice for Savanah Nicole Soto and Matthew Guerra.
