Diamond Bar High Alumna Charged In Fatal Road Rage Shooting

DIAMOND BAR, CA — One of the people charged in the killing of 6-year-old Aiden Leos during a road rage incident on the 55 Freeway last month was a graduate of Diamond Bar High School, according to reports.

Wynne Lee, 23, grew up in the San Gabriel Valley and attended the high school before enrolling at Mt. San Antonio College in Walnut, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Lee and her boyfriend, 24-year-old Marcus Anthony Eriz, were the targets of a two-week manhunt across the Southland after a man and woman in a white van shot at a vehicle driven by a woman taking her child to school on May 21. Leo was fatally shot when a bullet entered through the trunk of his mother's car before going through the back of his booster seat, according to the Orange County district attorney's office.

It’s believed that Lee was driving the vehicle and Eriz fired the fatal shot, according to California High Patrol.

A partial license plate captured by traffic cameras led police to a white 2018 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen SE that was registered to Lee’s father in Diamond Bar, the Times reported. Lee and Eriz were arrested at their home Sunday in Costa Mesa, CHP said. The van was recovered from the garage of a home in Whittier belonging to one of Eriz's relatives.

A weapon thought to have fired the bullet that killed Leos was also recovered by police.

Eriz was charged on Tuesday by the Orange County district attorney's office with murder and discharge of a gun into an occupied vehicle, with a sentencing enhancement for causing death to the victim. He faces a maximum sentence of 40 years to life if convicted of the charges.

Lee was charged with one felony count of being an accessory after the fact and a misdemeanor count of carrying a concealed firearm in a vehicle. She faces three years in state prison and one year in the Orange County Jail if convicted.

Eriz is currently being held on $2 million bail while prosecutors have asked to set Lee's bail at $500,000.
