FONTANA, CA. (THECOUNT) — Fontana man, Sergio Orozco, has been arrested after police said he shot and killed his friend over an argument about who would get “shotgun,” slang for a person calling first to be seated in the front seat of a vehicle.
Fontana police responded to a call of shots fired in the 15100 block of Coleen Street shortly before 10 p.m. Sunday. Upon arrival, officers found Jalen Wilson suffering from a gunshot wound to the chest.
He was transported to a local hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
Investigators identified Orozco, 19, as the prime suspect.
He was located Orozco in San Clemente on Monday where he was taken in custody.
Authorities learned that Orozco and Wilson were close friends. The two were with a third friend leaving a nearby party. When the driver got into his seat, Orozco and Wilson got into an argument over who would sit in the front passenger seat. That’s when Orozco pulled out a handgun and shot Wilson in the chest, police said. source
