A second homicide victim has been discovered at the home of the man suspected of fatally shooting an adult woman outside an elementary school, as its revealed he's an ex-cop facing sexual assault charges against underage girls.
Elias Huizar, 39, is on the run after the Monday afternoon shooting just outside of William Wiley Elementary School, where his ex-wife is listed as an employee.
Authorities confirmed that a dead body had been found at Huizar's home as they were conducting a search. They gave no identity of the victim, only to say it was not Huizar and a 'known associate' of the suspect.
Police said they are searching for Huizar, who fled the scene in a 2009 Toyota Corolla with the license plate CBZ4745. They believe him to be armed and dangerous and may commit more crimes.
Huizar is the same former school cop accused of raping a drunk 16-year-old and his 17-year-old girlfriend whom he is believed to have impregnated when she was 15, according to multiple reports.

His ex-wife, Amber Rodriguez, is listed as a 'paraeducator' at the school in West Richland. They have two children, ages nine and five, according to court documents.
The couple divorced in 2020. Following the rape charges, Rodriguez had filed to modify their custody agreement and had filed a protection order, because she believed he was a threat to her and their children.
Rodriguez claimed Huizar has been harassing her since the divorce and says he is mentally and emotionally unstable. He also owns guns, she said.
It was unclear what the result of the case was, a hearing had been set for May 14.
The shooting is believed to be an isolated incident but residents have been asked to call non-emergency lines if they see anything suspicious around the school.
Huizar served with the police department between 2014 and 2022 and was assigned to be a school resource officer at Washington Middle School in Yakima. It was not clear where he was employed after he'd left the department.

Huizar and his underage girlfriend have a baby who was nine months old at the time of his February court appearance, according to the Tri-City Herald.
