MORENO VALLEY, Calif. (AP) - Riverside County sheriff's deputies they are looking at all possible motives in a shooting that left two men dead and one wounded, including a possible link to immigrant smuggling.
Deputy Melissa Nieburger says two men were found shot at a home in Moreno Valley Thursday night. One man died at the scene and the other was taken to a hospital where he later died.
Authorities say the third man, who also had been shot, walked into a cell phone store earlier Thursday to ask for help.
The Riverside Press-Enterprise says witnesses at the cell phone store said the man told them he was being held at the home with ten other immigrants and that he was shot during a fight after the coyote demanded $3,700 from him or his family.
