Two little girls, step sisters, were playing in a pile of leaves in their yard when, from seemingly out of nowhere, a vehicle came careening through, hitting and killing them both. The vehicle then fled as quickly as it had come.
The two little girls were 6-year-old Anna Dieter-Eckerdt and 11-year-old Abigail Robinson. The driver of the vehicle who ran them down and stopped their lives tragically short was 18 year old Cinthya Garcia-Cisneros, an immigrant in the U.S. illegally.
Garcia-Cisneros’ boyfriend, Mario Echeverria, also 18, was in the vehicle at the time of the murder, and he suggested the pair drive off to the local car wash to rid the vehicle of any evidence, which they did.
Garcia-Cisneros was charged with two counts of hit-and-run with injury, and she’s currently being held at the Washington County Jail in Oregon. Her boyfriend has been charged with one count of hindering prosecution.
A memorial service for Anna and Abigail will be held on Saturday at Sonrise Church in Hillsboro, Oregon, the community in which the murder occurred. The service begins at 10 a.m. and all members of the community are welcome.
