The shootout was a result of a joint Mexican-US operation targeting the fugitive. He barricaded himself inside the home before walking out, slipping past authorities.

Failed Tijuana Operation
On Wednesday, officers from several security forces were heading to a home in search of the suspect when they were met with gunfire.
 |
It was during the exchange of gunfire that a FESC agent, identified as Abigail Esparza, 33, was seriously injured in the jugular vein, for which she was transferred to the Red Cross hospital, where she was pronounced dead an hour later.
 |
“My recognition to the elements that are bravely and exemplary participating in this operation,” she said. “To the family and loved ones of Agent Abigail, we recognize her bravery and dedication to the service of her state. Our wishes for prompt resignation are with you, Abigail’s life will be honored and her death will not go unpunished.”
 |
The operation involved members of the Mexican Army, National Guard, Municipal Police, FESC, and the State Attorney General’s Office (FGE). US Marshals were also involved in the operation in an advisory role to help apprehend the fugitive. A police helicopter and drones were used, but the fugitive managed to slip away.

Escape in Delano
Hernandez, 34, escaped from custody in Delano, California, on December 2, 2024, while being transported to a court appearance. The Delano Police Department reported that Hernandez jumped out of the transport van, evaded authorities and fled.
Delano initially cancelled several Christmas activities due to the escaped murderer. On December 5, authorities believe he had fled the Delano area already.
He was serving a 80-year-to-life sentence for first-degree murder, a second-strike offense, after being received from Los Angeles County on June 27, 2019.
