A Santa Barbara, California, surf school owner was indicted Wednesday for allegedly killing his 2-year-old son and his 10-month-old daughter with a spearfishing gun last month in Mexico.
"The murder of a child is difficult to understand under any circumstances," Kristi K. Johnson, the Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office, said in a statement. "I’m proud of the quick investigative efforts by FBI Agents, the Santa Barbara Police Department, U.S. Customs and Border Protection and our Mexican counterparts which led to the arrest of Mr. Coleman as he entered the United States, and I look forward to delivering justice for the young victims and their family." Coleman’s wife, Abby Coleman, reported her husband had left with their two children last month and she didn’t know where they had gone. She filed a missing person’s report the next day on Aug. 8 and tracked his phone to Rosarito, Mexico. On Aug. 9, border officials made contact with him at the San Ysidro Port of Entry in San Diego returning to the U.S. without his children. The bodies of his children were found in Rosarito the same day.More Related News
