Coroner’s officials identified Jason Samuel Gentile, 22, of Costa Mesa, as the man who was shot to death in Monrovia Tuesday night.
Here’s a link what appears to be his MySpace
Also, the city has begun a campaign of “Rumor Control“
From their Web site:
RUMOR CONTROL:
- Rumors Tuesday night that a third shooting had occurred at Julian Fisher Park were unfounded. No such shooting took place.
- Rumors Wednesday that the homocide victim was Garrett Jones, a Monrovia High School graduate, are untrue. The victim’s name has not been released by police at the time of this posting, but he was not Garrett Jones and did notattend Monrovia schools.
I like the use ofBOLD type in the rumor control page of the city web.
Actually, I miss the rumor control page in general from the city web as it was always entertaining and informative.
Back to the subject at hand. It is so sad to see there are shootings starting up again and that a young man lost his life in one. I hope this isn’t the sign of things to come like it was a couple of years ago.
