A 21-year-old suspect was arrested after a man was found fatally shot in San Bernardino.
On June 5, San Bernardino police responded to a shooting in the 600 block of West 9th Street at 11:19 p.m.
Officers found the victim, a 38-year-old man, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was transported to the hospital where he died from his injuries.
The gunman fled the area before police arrived. Homicide detectives later identified the suspected shooter as Efren Tui, 21, of Redlands.
