Israel Corpus was 23 and a resident of Tustin, California when he was shot and killed on July 9, 2017. The shooting occurred in the late afternoon, about 4 p.m., outside an apartment complex on Mitchell Avenue. Officers found Corpus with a single gunshot wound; he was taken to Orange County Global Medical Center in Santa Ana and pronounced dead within about half an hour.

Early in the investigation investigators described the suspects as Hispanic men in their 20s and suggested the shooting might have been gang-related. Detectives identified 17-year-old Gabriel Marcos Guerrero, last known to live in Los Angeles and known to frequent Orange County, as the primary suspect. Guerrero was described as Latino, 6 feet tall, 180 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes; he was considered armed and dangerous while officers sought him. Tustin officers, assisted by Irvine police and a SWAT team, attempted to serve a warrant at an apartment complex in Los Feliz but made no arrest there.

On July 21, 2017, police announced Guerrero was arrested in Riverside and booked into Orange County Juvenile Hall on suspicion of murder; authorities said no additional suspects were being sought and there was no further danger. If anyone knew Israel Corpus or has information about the events that led to his death, please come forward.
