Two San Bernardino County residents have been taken into custody in connection with a November homicide in Moreno Valley, authorities confirmed this week.
Marquise Hall, 34, and Tyiesha Sweeney, 28, both of Highland, were arrested on Wednesday, Dec. 3. They were located by Riverside Sheriff’s Office homicide investigators along with members of the Riverside County District Attorney’s Gang Impact Team, according to a departmental news release.
Deputies had been searching for the pair since the Nov. 27 fatal shooting of 57-year-old Cesar Gaitan, who was found dead in the 13000 block of Heacock Street. Officials have not revealed where Hall and Sweeney were located, nor have they provided a motive for the killing.
Hall has been booked into the Robert Presley Detention Center on a murder charge, while Sweeney was booked on suspicion of accessory to murder, deputies said.
