The deadly incident took place just before 9pm on Tuesday. Christopher ‘Cris’ Lopez was traveling west in his wife&#8217;s 2017 Toyota Corolla along 134 Freeway and passing under the Orange Grove Boulevard overpass when an identified person hurled a 30-to-35-pound rock at the vehicle below.<br />
Cris Lopez had just learned his wife was pregnant shortly before he was struck by the heavy projectile, suffering fatal injuries.<br />
21-year-old Guadalupe Gutierrez immediately rushed her husband to Glendale Adventist Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead less than 40 minutes after the attack, reported <a class="class" href="http://ktla.com/2018/03/15/person-of-interest-sought-after-boulder-apparently-thrown-onto-134-freeway-kills-passenger-in-vehicle/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">KTLA</a>.<br />
