Salvadoran illegal accused of setting female victim’s body ablaze weeks after beating homeless people with baseball bat
An illegal alien from El Salvador who was released by U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) last year has been arrested for killing a woman and attacking multiple homeless people in West Virginia, according to reports.
David Antonio Calderon, 46, was apprehended on May 8 in Frederick County, Virginia, as the primary suspect in a gruesome murder days prior in Jefferson County, WV.
On May 6, firefighters in Martinsburg, WV, were called to extinguish a couch that was ablaze and at the scene they discovered the body of a 33-year-old woman who had been reported missing from the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office home confinement program.
“Investigators located video surveillance of the suspect and his vehicle in the same area and same time as [displayed by] the GPS tracking unit located on the missing female,” the Berkeley County (WV) Sheriff’s Office explained in a press release.
After identifying Calderon as a suspect, authorities learned he was also wanted for beating two homeless victims with a baseball bat last month outside a Walmart in Charles Town, WV.
“The two victims suffered serious injuries and were transported to Winchester Medical Center where they were determined to have sustained broken bones and concussions,” The Winchester Star reports.
On Friday, Calderon was charged in the woman’s murder while being held in Northwestern Regional Adult Detention Center in Frederick County.
Calderon reportedly entered the U.S. illegally at an unspecified date and location before being caught attempting to cross the northern border from New York into Canada in March of 2023.
Canadian authorities turned Calderon over to USBP who gave him a notice to appear before a federal immigration judge in Virginia and released.
Calderon is expected to be extradited to West Virginia amid an ongoing homicide investigation.
