Slaying Victim Identified

A 74-year-old Fremont man allegedly killed by his daughter last week has been identified as Navarro Esquerra, according to the Bay Area News Group.

Esquerra was found lying in a pool of blood on the kitchen floor of his home in the 37800 block of Argyle Road at about 7:15 p.m. on Thursday.

He is believed to have died of blunt force trauma to the head, according to police. The murder weapon was not identified, BANG reports.

Esquerra’s estranged daughter, Megan Desiree O'Connell, 29, of Hayward, was found in a bathroom shortly after police arrived. She was arrested after a brief struggle and taken to Santa Rita Jail.

Police said O'Connell came to the house in violation of a restraining order and got into a violent argument with her father, which prompted her mother to call police.

According to media reports, O’Connell was charged with murder during her arraignment Monday afternoon at the Fremont Hall of Justice.

She is being held without bail and is scheduled to appear in court again on Wednesday, according to online court records.
