Angelo Leivas, 19, was found with gunshot wounds in the early morning darkness of Friday, August 15, 2025, along the 13000 block of Day Street in Moreno Valley. Deputies responding to a 4 a.m. call rushed him to a local hospital, where he later died. Investigators identified him that day as a resident of Banning and opened a homicide case that quickly centered on a fleeing vehicle seen leaving the scene.

About an hour after the shooting, authorities located the vehicle in Moreno Valley and by that afternoon said their investigation led them to the driver as the shooter. The suspect was identified as 19-year-old Jacob Nulen Necochea, also of Banning; he was arrested and booked into the Robert Presley Detention Center on suspicion of murder. Officials said evidence indicated the driver was responsible for killing Angelo Leivas and that the investigation remained active. Court proceedings were pending and no additional suspects had been announced.
