RIP JOSHUA JOSIAH TRUJILLO (August 17, 1982 – May 30, 2026)
Formal pronouncement of death was made on Saturday.
Initial reports are that the decedent was picking up his son Noah from a quinceañera party in Santa Clarita when he got into an argument with his ex-wife’s boyfriend in the parking lot of the George A. Carvalho Sports Complex. The decedent, who had a permit for a lawful gun, shot the boyfriend multiple times, but the shooter responsible for the decedent’s fatal wounds appears to have been neither of the two.
The decedent was the only son of a local pastor in San Fernando; he leaves behind four children.
