Suspect arrested in deadly shooting on Stockton's Tristan Circle
A suspect has been arrested following a deadly shooting along Stockton's Tristan Circle early last month, police said on Wednesday.
The shooting happened shortly before 12:30 a.m. on the 7000 block of Tristan Circle on Sept. 4 when they found a 39-year-old man suffering from a gunshot wound, police said.
The victim was taken to the hospital, where he died on Sept. 9, police said.
The suspect, identified as 33-year-old Joshua Tuimavave, was taken into custody for outstanding warrants that were not related to the shooting case.
Detectives continued to investigate and linked Tuimavave to the deadly shooting and a separate non-injury shooting on the same night, police said.
On Wednesday, police said they filed a homicide charge against Tuimavave in connection with the shooting.
