Suspect to possibly face multiple charges

VENTURA, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say a second suspect has been arrested in a 2019 shooting that left a 7-year-old girl in a coma and wounded her mother in Ventura County.

The 24-year-old man was taken into custody Dec. 1 in San Bernardino County.

The Ventura County Sheriff’s Office says he could face charges including conspiracy, shooting at an inhabited dwelling and assault with a firearm.

The arrest comes two years after an Oxnard man was arrested in connection with the double shooting.

Officials say there are no outstanding suspects.
