Houston 'Ding-dong-ditch' shooting suspect 'waited' for children to return; charges to be upgraded, D.A. says | AI News Digest
The suspect in the shooting death of 11-year-old Jullian Guzman is facing upgraded charges to capital murder. Gonzalo Leon Jr., 42, allegedly shot Guzman while he was playing 'ding-dong-ditch' outside Leon's home. Prosecutors have indicated that they will seek a $1 million bond and have recovered over 20 firearms from Leon's residence. The incident has raised concerns about gun violence and the tragic loss of a young life. District Attorney Sean Teare emphasized the senselessness of the act, stating that Guzman was simply a child engaging in a harmless game. A bond hearing is set for Wednesday as the case continues to develop.
