McKittrick

McKittrick was a region in the San Joaquin Valley in central California, near an exit off Interstate 5.

While driving north after the death of his father and cousin in Mexico, Jorge Rafael Marquez stopped his car on a stretch of I-5 before the Buttonwillow/McKittrick exit, where he committed himself to acts of violence in order to destroy what he saw as an unjust society. Marquez abandoned the vehicle and disappeared, later surfacing as an international terrorist anarchist with the nom de guerre of "Zapata."
