Homicide detectives have made an arrest regarding the June 19, murder of Josue Manuel Matos.
Through their investigation, Homicide detectives identified the suspect as Aaron Garcia, a 25-year-old resident of Long Beach. On June 25, officers were assisting the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department with an eviction on Cerritos Avenue. During the course of the eviction, officers located and arrested Garcia inside the residence. The suspect was transported to Long Beach City Jail where he was booked for murder and a probation violation. He is being held without bail.
