GILROY – A 17-year-old girl will live despite multiple stab wounds, city police detective Dan Zen said Thursday.
Anna Maria Gonzales Jael is still in a San Jose hospital but is no longer in critical condition, Zen said.
Police found Gonzales Jael on the evening of May 2, bleeding from several stab wounds in her abdomen. Her 34-year-old live-in boyfriend, Delfino Javier Jimenez, had fled the scene.
Jimenez is the police department’s lead suspect, but they have been unsuccessful in finding him. Zen has sent a wanted poster for Jimenez to the U.S. Border Patrol and all California law-enforcement agencies.
The couple lived in a rented room at 133A Martin St. Housemates said Jimenez stabbed Gonzales Jael in a fit of jealousy.
Police are treating the case as attempted murder.
Anyone with information may call detective Dan Zen at 846-0350.
