BRENTWOOD — A 20-year-old Walnut Creek man who survived a shootout involving two others that killed a 17-year-old last week has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, authorities said Tuesday.
The July 14 shooting happened during an attempted robbery that happened about 7:45 p.m. in the 800 block of Marjoram Drive, police said. Two suspects, the 20-year-old who’s been arrested, and the 17-year-old who died, are suspected of trying to rob a 21-year-old Antioch man, according to police.Authorities did not identify the 17-year-old Tuesday, citing the investigation and the lack of notification to his relatives.
Brentwood police spokesperson Lt. Walter O’Grodnick said police arrested the 20-year-old at the scene, and booked him after the shooting. He also is suspected of attempted robbery, conspiracy, assault with a deadly weapon, false imprisonment, discharging a gun at an occupied vehicle, and carrying a loaded gun in public, O’Grodnick said.
The case had not been filed formally before 3 p.m. Tuesday by the Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office, DA spokesperson Ted Asregadoo said. The suspect was in custody Tuesday at the Martinez Detention Facility in lieu of $2.575 million bail.
