The mugshots of the two people accused of killing a boy during a road rage incident in California were released Tuesday.
Marcus Eriz, 24, and Wynne Lee, 23, were arrested Sunday in connection to the death of Aiden Leos, 6.
TWO ARRESTED IN CONNECTION TO ROAD RAGE SHOOTING DEATH OF 6-YEAR-OLD CALIFORNIA BOY
Joanna Cloonan was driving her son to school on a highway in Orange County on May 21 when the fatal shooting occurred.
Moments before the shooting, Cloonan said she made an obscene gesture toward the people inside a vehicle that cut her off, while officials believe that the driver in that car maneuvered behind them and opened fire.
A bullet went through the trunk and hit Leos.

“As I was merging away from the carpool lane, I heard a loud noise, and I heard my son say ‘ow,’ and I pulled the car over as soon as possible, and he had been shot. I tried to save him by calling 911, but he was losing a lot of blood. He just didn’t deserve that. No one deserves that,” Cloonan said.
“He was just a blessing, pure blessing, to have that taken from us. The loss is unspeakable,” said Aiden’s grandmother Mary Clooney.
Various groups pulled together to increase the reward for any person who came forward with information that could have helped the investigation. The total reportedly came in close to $500,000.
