Illegal aliens accused in Dallas killing of teen mother's unborn baby charged with capital murder

The incident occurred on May 3, around 12:40 a.m.

The pregnant teen was riding with another person who confronted Zapata Aleman and Calero Jiron from a vehicle before leaving the 7-Eleven. The victims reported that shortly thereafter, the two suspects followed them from the parking lot.

Calero Jiron was allegedly driving the car when the shots rang out, striking the victim and her unborn child. Another vehicle was also struck by gunfire, but the driver was uninjured.

When the victim, who was 22 weeks pregnant, told police she was carrying a child, she was taken to nearby Baylor Hospital where a cesarean section was performed. The baby did not survive.

Along with the murder charge, Calero Jiron faces five counts of felony aggravated assault, one count of possession of cocaine, one count of unlawfully carrying a weapon.

Zapata Aleman faces five counts of felony aggravated assault and one count of possession of cocaine along with his murder charges.
