Audreyanna Diana Rivera, 34, was fatally shot at her Lamont, California residence on April 12, 2020. She was found with a gunshot wound, taken to hospital and pronounced dead. At the time she was seven months pregnant; her unborn child survived the initial incident but required a breathing machine and was reported to be in critical condition.

The shooting stemmed from a domestic dispute with her partner, Javier Vidal, 36, who was identified as the primary suspect. Vidal was accused of kidnapping the couple’s two-year-old son, Elias Vidal, triggering an Amber Alert; Elias was later found unharmed. Vidal fled, exchanged gunfire with Kern County Sheriff’s deputies during a standoff, and was fatally shot by authorities.

Audreyanna’s death was ruled a homicide. The case has been noted for the domestic-violence context and the involvement of a young child.
