Four teens and an adult were arrested Wednesday night after a shooting that San Benito County sheriff’s deputies believe was gang-related. During the shooting, a person was hit by a bullet while inside their home.
19-year-old Brian Moreno was driving a red Nissan Rogue on 5th Street in San Juan Bautista. Occupants of the vehicle allegedly fired shots at a group of young men walking near Polk Street.
Nine shots were fired and several bullets hit a nearby home, one bullet injuring a resident who suffered a non-life-threatening injury.
Moreno, three 17-year-old boys, and a 17-year-old girl from Hollister were all arrested.
All five suspects were booked into the San Benito County Jail and charged with attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder, child endangerment and participation in a criminal street gang.
