Police say that, around 3 a.m. on Dec. 3, “Jason Castillo was first shot while in his vehicle near the intersection of Challenger Way and Avenue K.
“Injured, Mr. Castillo was able to make his way to the Shell Gas Station and dialed 911,” the Lancaster station continued. “As Mr. Castillo laid on the ground, on the phone with a 911 operator, the suspect drove around, approached Mr. Castillo and shot him point blank in the head.”
Det. James Phillips of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department told KLTA that “we definitely believe, with the evidence we have, that during the [first] shooting, they had actually crashed into each other. We are guessing that the suspect was ramming into the victim’s vehicle.”
