A preliminary investigation indicated there were no signs of foul play.

In a series of tweets that began at 7:28pm Wednesday, San Jose police reported that officers shot a carjacking suspect near West Hedding Street and Park Avenue, at the city's western boundary with Santa Clara.

Authorities expect Samantha Moreno Rodriguez of San Jose to be extradited from Colorado to Nevada to face charges that she killed her 7-year-old Liam Husted, also of San Jose, whose body was found near a highway outside the city 10 days ago. Rodriguez was being held in a Denver jail on suspicion of murder.
