LAPD: Brothers Arrested For Fatal Wedding Fight

SUN VALLEY (AP) — Police have arrested two brothers allegedly involved in a fatal shooting at a wedding reception in Los Angeles.

Police say 28-year-old Miguel Ochoa and 19-year-old Axel Chavez got into a fight as the reception was ending early Sunday. One of them allegedly shot 20-year-old Jose Arroyo of North Hollywood.

The men were arrested a short time later when their car hit an embankment on Interstate 5. Ochoa also had to be hospitalized due to his injuries.

Police say a weapon recovered at the banquet hall will be tested for ballistics. Investigators say they are looking for a motive.

The bride and groom were not involved in the fight.

Officers say Ochoa is a civilian Los Angeles County security officer.
