SUMMARY: Rudy Lopez, a 20-year-old, was tragically killed by a stolen car driven by Austin Coleman in Little River on September 19, 2023. Lopez, on his way to work, was intentionally struck three times and then left behind as Coleman cleaned the car before his arrest. His parents, Rolando and Rosalba, visiting from Guatemala, struggle with their grief while seeking justice for their son. They feel that race played a role in the tragic incident, though the arrest report makes no mention of it. Despite South Carolina lacking a hate crime law, they remain determined to fight for justice.

The parents of Rudy Alexander Salguero Lopez, a 20-year-old killed in Horry County, are grappling with an unimaginable loss as they seek justice for their son.

Rudy was killed on September 19, 2023, when Austin Coleman intentionally ran him over three times with a stolen vehicle in a parking lot off Highway 9 and 57 near Little River, according to an arrest warrant. https://wpde.com/news/local/parents-seek-justice-for-20-year-old-intentionally-ran-over-in-horry-co-parking-lot-rudy-alexander-salguero-lopez-unimaginable-loss-justice-little-river-arrest-warrant
