Bullet from a Road Rage Fight Killed Influencer in Crossfire — Suspect Arrested
Jaden Patel here, and if you thought road rage was just about honking and middle fingers, well, congratulations — you’ve been living in a simulation. The real world, as it turns out, is far more dramatic. And deadly.
Yarely Ashley Hermosillo, a content creator known for her vibrant lifestyle and cooking videos, has died after being struck by a stray bullet during a road rage incident in the Phoenix area. Yes, that’s right — she wasn’t even driving. She wasn’t even involved. She was just… there. In the passenger seat of an SUV with her 3-year-old son and her mother, all of them unharmed except for one very unfortunate detail: Yarely took a bullet to the eye. That’s not a metaphor. That’s not a typo. That’s a literal gunshot wound to the face, delivered by someone who apparently decided that firing a gun into the air at a stoplight was a reasonable way to settle a dispute.
The suspect? Jesus Preciado Dousten, who police say was behind the wheel of a pickup truck when he allegedly got into an argument with another driver around 11:45 PM Friday night. According to Glendale Police Department reports, Dousten pulled out a firearm and fired a round “in a random direction.” The bullet didn’t hit the other truck. It didn’t hit the road. It passed through the window of a Chevy Equinox — the same vehicle Yarely was riding in — and lodged itself in her face. The boyfriend, who was driving, immediately sped off to the hospital. They made it. She didn’t.
Dousten was arrested Saturday night on charges including second-degree murder, aggravated assault, misconduct involving weapons, illegal possession, and endangerment. He’s currently held on a $1 million bond. Police say he admitted to drinking and playing poker at a friend’s house earlier that evening, though they’re still unclear whether alcohol played a role in the shooting. Fun fact: no one else in the other pickup truck did anything wrong. So, basically, the universe handed out blame like free samples at a trade show — and only one person got the full package.
Yarely’s family has called the incident a “senseless act of violence” in a GoFundMe they launched following her death. They remember her as a loving wife, devoted mother, and a woman whose light touched everyone she met. Her content often showcased her life with her son, her cooking, her joy — a life now cut short by a moment of irrational fury from a stranger with a gun and poor impulse control.
Let’s be honest: this isn’t just a tragic accident. This is a cautionary tale wrapped in a headline. A man gets mad at another driver, pulls a gun, fires into the sky — and ends up killing a woman who was literally just trying to get home to her kid. The irony is so thick you could spread it on toast. You don’t need a degree in physics to understand that bullets don’t care about your emotional state. But apparently, some people do.
So here we are. Another influencer gone too soon. Another life erased because someone couldn’t wait five seconds before reacting. Another reminder that in America, sometimes the most dangerous thing on the road isn’t traffic — it’s the person behind the wheel who thinks a gun makes them feel powerful.
Well, there you have it. Humanity at its finest.
