A 13-year-old Long Beach girl accused of shooting to death a 16-year-old boy inside a Pomona apartment over the weekend was in custody on Monday, Nov. 24, authorities said.<\/p>\n
The girl, whose name was not released because she is a minor, was arrested Sunday, Nov. 23, on suspicion of involuntary manslaughter, said Aly Mejia, spokeswoman for the Pomona Police Department.<\/p>\n
The suspect and the victim likely knew each other, Mejia said.<\/p>\n
It is unclear what prompted the shooting Sunday evening at an apartment in the 1300 block of Pasadena Street, where the victim lived, Mejia said. Police received a call at 5:22 p.m.<\/p>\n
There were other people in the apartment at the time.<\/p>\n
The boy died at the scene. The medical examiner\u2019s office had not yet publicly identified him.<\/p>\n
Police found the girl at the apartment and took her into custody. She is being held in a juvenile facility, Mejia said.<\/p>\n
It wasn\u2019t clear who owned the gun.<\/p>\n
