Victor Hugo Fregoso Cruz, 26, was killed on May 29, 2018, at a Motel 6 on Navy Drive in Stockton. Around 9:25 p.m. two suspects allegedly forced their way into the motel room and opened fire. Cruz was taken to a nearby hospital with severe gunshot injuries and died there.

Authorities identified and arrested two suspects: 21-year-old Fernando Herrera, taken in the 600 block of North Sutter Street and booked on charges including murder, carrying a concealed weapon in a vehicle, carrying a loaded firearm in public, and possession of a large-capacity magazine; and 20-year-old Jose Quintero, arrested in the 6100 block of Tam O’Shanter Drive and charged with burglary to commit murder, second-degree murder, second-degree robbery, possession of a firearm, and gang enhancements. Both were booked into the San Joaquin County Jail without bail and had arraignments set in Stockton Superior Court.

The killing was the fifth homicide in Stockton for 2018 and was described in charging documents as tied to gang-related activity. Does anyone have information about Cruz, the motel, or the events that night?
