A confrontation over suspected infidelity led to a tragic car crash in San Bernardino, California, resulting in the deaths of a woman and a man. The incident unfolded shortly after midnight on January 26, when 31-year-old Isaac Albert Perez allegedly confronted his wife, Asia Guercy, at Perris Hill Park. Guercy was with another man, Charles Dark, at the time, and the situation escalated when Perez followed their vehicle after the confrontation.
According to police reports, Perez crashed his car into the vehicle carrying Guercy and Dark, causing it to veer off the road and into a flood control channel. Emergency responders arrived shortly thereafter but pronounced both Guercy and Dark dead at the scene. While police have not confirmed the nature of the relationship between Guercy and Dark, they stated that Perez had confronted both individuals regarding his suspicions of an extramarital affair.
Following the incident, authorities charged Perez with two counts of murder. He was initially arrested at the crash site, and in a court appearance on January 28, he pleaded not guilty to the charges. The San Bernardino County Coroner’s office later identified the victims, and the details of the case have drawn significant attention due to the tragic circumstances surrounding the events.
Guercy had previously sought a restraining order against Perez in May 2021, citing domestic violence. Her sister, Maliya Guercy, revealed that Asia was in the process of leaving her husband when the confrontation occurred. Maliya described her sister as a loving mother of three who had endured verbal and physical abuse during her marriage. In an emotional statement, she expressed the profound loss felt by their family and highlighted Asia’s resilience despite the challenges she faced.
A GoFundMe page has been established to assist with funeral expenses and support for Guercy’s children, underscoring the impact of this tragic event on her family. The community continues to grapple with the aftermath of this incident, which serves as a stark reminder of the potential consequences of domestic disputes.
