Jay Jesse Espinosa, 19, was shot and killed in Pomona, California, on September 23, 2018. He had gone downtown to visit a friend who was DJing at a club. Around 2 a.m., as Espinosa and friends crossed the street to return to their cars, a dark-colored SUV nearly struck them, sparking a confrontation. The SUV left but returned; a man exited the back seat and opened fire, striking Espinosa multiple times. Friends transported him to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The cause of death was listed as multiple gunshot wounds.

Investigators identified and arrested three suspects: Gabriel Ceasar Cervantez, 22, alleged driver; Everette Sereno Cervantez, 23, alleged front-seat passenger; and Marco Antonio Geary, 23, identified as the shooter. All three were charged with murder, and Geary also faced a charge of being a felon in possession of a handgun. Geary was held without bail; the Cervantez brothers were each held on $2.05 million bail. Surveillance footage and witness statements were cited in the investigation.
