A man was arrested last week for allegedly killing his girlfriend at her Corona home, police said.

Officers were called to the 1700 block of Wren Avenue at around 11:50 p.m. on Sept. 25 after learning of an assault that took place at a home in the area, said a news release from the Corona Police Department.

"After several attempts to make contact, officers were forced to enter the residence to ensure the victim's safety," the release said. "Once inside, officers located a female victim, 52-year-old Avery King, of Corona, who had sustained multiple visible injuries."

Despite this, police say that King declined medical treatment at the scene and that she "elected not to pursue prosecution" towards the suspect, who they identified as her boyfriend, 55-year-old Manuel Rivera of Corona.
