Man held in 2006 fatal shooting after a Rialto bar confrontation
A man charged with fatally shooting 25-year-old Rosa Angela Trigo, after a confrontation at El Patio bar in Rialto in 2006, was ordered held to face the charges at a hearing Thursday.
A judge determined there was sufficient evidence to hold over Andres Landeros Garcia for trial in Trigo's death after hearing evidence and testimony at a preliminary hearing in San Bernardino Superior Court.
Garcia, 23, is scheduled to return to court Oct. 8 for formal arraignment on charges of murder, attempted murder and assault with a firearm on a person, according to court records and the District Attorney's Office reported.
Trigo and at least one other companion had been at El Patio bar, in Rialto, when a fight erupted on Apr. 17, 2006. She left the bar sometime after 2 a.m., and got into a car as a passenger.
Minutes later, a Hummer pulled alongside the car carrying Trigo in the 1900 block of West Fifth Street, in San Bernardino. Someone in the Hummer opened fire, according to police. Trigo was struck and died at the scene.
