On November 1, 2014, Ronald Belk, a 51-year-old resident of Trabuco Canyon, was killed in a triple shooting in the 900 block of Beech Avenue in Fontana. Deputies from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department were flagged down just before 4 p.m.; when they arrived they found three males with gunshot wounds. Belk was pronounced dead at about 4:30 p.m. at the scene. A 15-year-old boy and a 48-year-old man were also injured and taken to a hospital, their conditions unknown the following day.

Homicide detectives quickly took over the investigation, but no suspects were identified in the initial reports and authorities withheld further details. Detective Troy Mooradian and Sergeant Scott Landen were listed as leading the inquiry. No motive has been released. If anyone saw activity in the 900 block of Beech Avenue that afternoon or has information that could help, please come forward.
