Separate Arrests in Santa Monica and Los Angeles Shootings

Two separate arrests have been made in relation to fatal shootings in different cities. In Los Angeles, Demarco McDonald was arrested by the U.S. Marshals Service for his alleged involvement in the November shooting of Dequavious Hillman in Atlanta. Meanwhile, in Santa Monica, Fabian Mendez was apprehended for the fatal shooting of a homeless man on January 15, following a confrontation involving an unidentified woman. Mendez, who fled the scene after the incident, was considered armed and dangerous, and was eventually captured through an extensive investigation. He has been charged with homicide, with bail set at $3 million. Both cases highlight the significant police efforts and community involvement in tracking down and arresting the suspects.
