Second suspect arrested in deadly LA street race

LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles police say a second suspect has been arrested in connection with an illegal street race that ended with a crash that killed two spectators.

Officer Liliana Preciado says 38-year-old Irael Valenzuela was taken into custody Tuesday on suspicion of murder.

The Los Angeles resident is being held on $2 million bail. Preciado says the arrest came after detectives interviewed witnesses and received anonymous tips.

Prosecutors earlier charged 21-year-old Henry Gevorgyan with two counts of murder. Detectives say Gevorgyan was driving a Ford Mustang that went out of control during the race Feb. 25 in the Chatsworth area.

Twenty-six-year-old Eric Siguenza and 50-year-old Wilson Thomas Wong died.

Police didn't immediately say what Valenzuela's role in the race was.
