Sheriff’s Homicide detectives have identified three individuals wanted in connection with the shooting death of a three year-old boy in south Sacramento earlier this week. Gabriel Quintero, 20, Eric Minjares, 17, and Marcus Weber, 16, have all been identified as suspects in this case. (See attached photos)

On July 4, 2012 shortly before 11:00 p.m, three year-old Jorge Azios III, was riding in a vehicle driven by his father at the intersection of Loucreta Drive and Palmer House Drive. Multiple gunshots were fired at them from someone in another vehicle, and the victim was struck several times. He was immediately driven to a hospital but died as a result of his injuries.

Gabriel Quintero is a Hispanic male, 6’ tall and approximately 180 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Eric Minjares is a Hispanic male juvenile, 5’7” tall and approximately 135 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Marcus Weber is a black male juvenile, 5’7” tall and approximately 140 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. All three suspects are known to frequent many areas around Sacramento County.

On the night of this incident, the suspects are believed to have been driving a 1999 white Ford Expedition, similar to the one in the attached photo. Anyone who had contact with any of these individuals on the evening of July 4th, or who believes they may have seen them in this vehicle that evening, is asked to call investigators and provide them with information. In addition, anyone knowing the whereabouts of any of these suspects is asked to call the Major Crimes Bureau’s tip line at (916) 874-3152 or the Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau at (916) 874-5115. Calls may be made 24 hours a day. Deputy Jason Ramos,
