Victims of Hayward car auction lot killings id'd
HAYWARD, Calif. Police have identified the victims of a double homicide at a car auction lot in Hayward.
Hayward police Capt. Darryl McAllister said Wednesday 63-year-old Angelito Erasquin, a security guard at Bay Cities Auto Auction, and 56-year-old Jim Wightman, a trucker from Central Point, Ore., were found stabbed to death early Tuesday morning.
Wightman was in the cab of his truck, which was still idling. Erasquin's body was found on the street outside the auction business.
McAllister says investigators have made no arrests and still don't have a motive for the attacks.
Erasquin's family says he was months away from retiring after working at Bay Cities for about nine years.
Wightman's son-in-law, Clinton Perry, told the San Francisco Chronicle his father-in-law enjoyed working with his hands and had a "huge heart."
