San Bernardino shooting victim found dead in car

Police found the body of a 21-year-old San Bernardino man inside a vehicle Sunday morning.

Michael Alejandro Espino was pronounced dead at the scene in the 200 block of South Lenore Avenue.

Police came to the area after someone called at 9:45 a.m.

"We received a call that a person was either passed out or deceased in a vehicle," said police Lt. Eric McBride.

Espino had one gunshot wound to his head. No weapon was found in the silver Honda Pilot parked at the end of the culdesac. He did not live in the area.

Police estimate Espino was shot between 2 and 3 a.m. based on residents who said they heard a gunshot around that time. It's also based on a preliminary examination by coroner's officials, said San Bernardino police Lt. Paul Williams.

"We're treating it as a homicide until something else comes up that says otherwise," Williams said.

No one has been arrested and a motive is unknown.

Espino is the 17th person killed in the city this year. There have been 13 homicides, including five in May.

Everything seems to be unrelated, for the most part. Hot heads with short fuses I would say.

Thats a given but as far as murders I haven't heard anything from in that area in a second.

I think someone was killed by the park a few months back.

A 17-year-old boy was arrested Wednesday night on suspicion of shooting and killing a San Bernardino man.

Police arrested the San Bernardino boy in the 1200 block of Congress Street just after 9 p.m., officers said. Officers booked him into the San Bernardino County Juvenile Detention and Assessment Center in San Bernardino.

His name was not released due to his age.

Police investigators suspect the teen is responsible for the killing of 21-year-old Michael Alejandro Espino. Espino was found dead Sunday with a gunshot wound to his head in his silver Honda Pilot parked at the end of the cul-de-sac in the 200 block of South Lenore Avenue. No weapon was found in the vehicle.
