Pomona men plead not guilty in Mission Boulevard killing
Two men pleaded not guilty last week to charges that they murdered Miguel Martin, 24, in front of a Mission Boulevard market on Dec. 5.
The alleged gunman, 16-year-old Jose Luis Gutierrez, and alleged accomplice Albert Matthew Sandoval, 21, are now scheduled to face a preliminary hearing on Feb. 11, said Deputy District Attorney Bjorn Dodd.
The two men entered their pleas Thursday in Pomona Superior Court. Both remain jailed in lieu of bail.
Dodd said the killing may have been motivated by a confrontation the morning of the shooting between Martin and friends of the accused men.
Gutierrez allegedly shot Martin at about 5 p.m. in the parking lot of Guadalajara Market, 1134 W. Mission Blvd.
