ESCONDIDO – A man and a woman, both under 20, were jailed today, June 11, in connection with the shooting death of a 21-year-old Fallbrook man earlier this week along an Escondido roadway, authorities said.
Steven LaRussa was shot multiple times on Gamble Street near East El Norte Parkway about 1:15 p.m. Tuesday, June 9 and later died in a hospital, Escondido police Lt. Eric Skaja said.
An investigation led police to Escondido residents Juan Maldonado, 18 and Jessica Espinoza-Contreras, 19, but it was not immediately clear how officers came to suspect they were involved with LaRussa's death.
