Arrest Made In Long Beach Mother-Daughter Killings
LONG BEACH (CBSLA.com/AP) — Long Beach police say a suspect has been arrested in the shooting deaths of a mother and her 4-year-old daughter.
Brandon Colbert, 22, was arrested in the shooting deaths of 26-year-old Carina Mancera and her daughter, Jennabel Anaya.
Mancer, Anaya and Anaya's father had been grocery shopping and were walking home Aug. 6 when a man walked up and opened fire.
It happened less than a half-block from the family's apartment. The girl's father told investigators he did not recognize the man.
A $40,000 reward was offered to catch the killer. Police say Colbert was arrested after he took a bus from Tulsa, Okla., back to the Los Angeles area.
