Marcus Erez, Wayne Lee arrested in the death of the boy on the road fury

One day after the mother of a 6-year-old boy was killed in a road shooting she demanded justice at his memorial service, two people have been arrested in connection with the boy’s death. The California Highway Patrol said Marcus Anthony Erez, 24, and Wayne Lee, 23, were detained Sunday outside their Costa Mesa home and are likely to be charged with murder. Republican People’s Party (CHP) aide Don Goodbrand told a news conference on Monday that authorities had recovered the weapon used in the attack and the vehicle in which the suspects were riding. He also said that Lee was the driver, but declined to disclose other details of the case, which has been handed over to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office for further investigation and prosecution. Aiden Lewis, 6, fell on May 21 on State Route 55 in Orange, where Aiden’s mother, Joanna Cloonan, was driving her son to kindergarten, and, according to Cloonan and those who stopped to help her, made a hand gesture to a car they cut, and then walked behind her, One of them shot Cloonan’s car. Aiden, who was sitting in the back seat, was shot in the abdomen and pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. “She had to carry her little boy while he died,” Aiden’s sister, Alexis Cloonan, said of the boy’s mother. The family buried Aiden on Monday, and Goodbrand said information poured in from community members as the investigation developed, much of which was useful in tracking down potential suspects. He said the relative rarity of their car, a white Volkswagen Golf Sports and Volkswagen, made them easy to find, and the Los Angeles Times reported that investigators identified the couple after obtaining information and bolstering a photo of the car’s license plate. They also discovered that they were both diluted to operate in the Inland Empire of Southern California and were in the firing zone when it happened. And in reflecting on why the issue prompted so much collaboration, as well as national interest, Spitzer said, because it could have happened to any of us. “We all drive the highways of Southern California. We’ve all been annoyed with other motorists; other motorists have been annoyed with us. I’ve made some nods to myself. Never come to violence, and certainly not in my kingdom or yours to lose a life.” The joy he brought into our lives was insurmountable: Mother glorifies 6-year-old boy killed in rage on the road The motorway was closed hours after the shooting as investigators searched for clues, and up to $500,000 was offered as a reward for information that led to arrest. Anonymous donors, government officials, and community members donated to the reward, Spitzer Said Friday. It is unclear whether anyone will receive a monetary reward, or how much. Goodbrand declined to answer questions about the bonus. “On behalf of Border Division Chief Omar Watson and the Santa Ana District, we are deeply grateful for the professionalism and tireless commitment of our investigators who have worked on this case since day one of finding those responsible,” said California Highway Patrol Commissioner Amanda Ray. They had $1 million each. It wasn’t clear if they had lawyers who could speak on their behalf, and their relationship wasn’t immediately recognized. At Saturday’s memorial service, Cloonan said her son brought her “insurmountable” joy and did silly things. Which he’d do, like getting into a full dance pose every time he heard a song or when he spoke in silly voices, Cloonan said, “I want nothing more than to find justice.” Outraged that such a precious and beautiful soul had not had the opportunity to continue developing into a young man and one day start a family of his own while fulfilling the desires of his heart, Cloonan said that although he could hardly utter the word, he knew he wanted to become an entomologist one day. the days. Aiden Lewis case: bounty increased to $450,000 in the case of the suspected murder of a California boy; The suspects’ car was identified, the 6-year-old would check every night before going to bed to tell his mother and sister, “Good night and sweet dreams.” “I wanted to make sure everyone was okay before you close your eyes and end your day,” Cloonan told her son at the open casket service. Aiden’s sister also spoke during the memorial, recalling the tender moments the two had. She said he loves spending time with her even if she’s doing her homework or playing video games. She said she would hold on to every moment and cherish it for the rest of her life. “I can never play Mario Kart with my little brother or take him to the park again, and that breaks my heart,” she said. “Because of the monsters that killed Aiden’s life, I will never be able to hug my brother again.” We were supposed to grow up together and help each other out.
