Boyfriend Stalks & Runs Over Girlfriend As Authorities Look The Other Way | True Crime Today

Episode 372,   Jun 15, 2022, 03:00 PM

 A 27-year-old man has been arrested after allegedly hitting his ex-girlfriend with a car and killing her.

Officers responded to a report of a bicyclist being struck by a car in the 3000 block of South Rural Street at around 11 a.m. on Wednesday, June 1. The 29-year-old Kayla Bowling was found "laying in the driveway of 3002 S. Rural St., near a bicycle suffering from trauma consistent with being struck by a vehicle."

Police reported that Bowling was transported to a hospital, but she was pronounced dead shortly after her arrival.

According to reports, investigators identified Kyle Rigdon as the suspect in the hit-and-run. WXIN-TV reports that Rigdon, Bowling's ex-boyfriend, sent her a Facebook message saying: "Have fun with whatever you have going on tonight. Tomorrow will be the biggest wakeup call of your life."

In addition, Bowling reportedly told her mother that she feared her ex-boyfriend would kill her.

Several days ago, Rigdon allegedly slashed Bowling's tires and stalked and harassed her.

Rigdon reportedly showed up to work on June 1 telling his employer he had hurt his girlfriend and requested his co-worker say he has been at work since 10 a.m., although he didn’t show up until 12 p.m. When Rigdon's employer learned of Bowling's death, he called the police.

Police say Rigdon was arrested on Friday, June 3. Apparently, officers found Rigdon's car on West Michigan Street and followed him until he was taken into custody. When they searched his vehicle, they found grass and dirt on the front left bumper and a damaged front left bumper. The final decision on charging will be made by the Marion County Prosecutor's Office.
