Suspect charged with murder of 6-year-old boy in road rage shooting

A 24-year-old man and his girlfriend appeared in court Tuesday and were charged in connection with the shooting death of a 6-year-old boy on a California freeway last month. 

Marcus Anthony Eriz faced a judge and was charged with murder in the death of Aiden Leos. Wynne Lee, 23, was charged with one felony count of being an accessory after the fact and one misdemeanor count of illegally concealing a firearm. Police said Eriz fired his gun from a white Volkswagen station wagon while driving on the 55 Freeway in the city of Orange on May 21. A bullet struck and killed Leos while he was sitting in a booster seat in the back of his mother's vehicle on his way to kindergarten. The couple fled the scene of the shooting, sparking a manhunt that included a $500,000 reward for information on their whereabouts.
