San Antonio police have elevated their investigation into the enigmatic deaths of a pregnant teenager and her boyfriend, now treating the case as a capital murder.

The tragic incident unfolded days after 18-year-old Savanah Soto, expecting to give birth, and her boyfriend were found lifeless. The authorities are actively seeking two persons of interest in connection with the case.

Initially deeming the situation an “unspeakable tragedy,” the police had discovered the bodies of the full-term pregnant woman and her 22-year-old boyfriend, identified as Matthew Guerra, inside a Kia Optima in San Antonio on Tuesday. Unfortunately, the unborn child was also found deceased.

The vehicle had been stationed at the location for several days, according to police, ABC News reported.

Subsequent to the grim discovery, the medical examiner confirmed the identities of the victims as Soto and Guerra.

Both individuals had sustained gunshot wounds, with Guerra succumbing to a gunshot wound to the head. The exact manner of death is yet to be determined by the medical examiner, as stated by San Antonio Police Chief William McManus in a press briefing on Thursday.

Although the possibility of a murder-suicide exists, police currently do not lean towards that scenario. The case is actively being treated as a capital murder for both victims.
