When police showed up, they found the victim and she was taken to Kern Medical where she was pronounced dead. 

The victim was identified as 45-year-old Guadalupe Govea, according to KCSO. The family said it was her boyfriend who hit and killed her with her own red SUV. 

Her daughter said she was in an abusive relationship with the man, who allegedly used drugs. Guadalupe leaves behind seven children ages eight to 24.
