An 18-year-old Watsonville man was arrested Friday morning on suspicion of attempted murder.
Watsonville Police spokeswoman MIchelle Pulido said detectives served multiple search warrants linked to this case and arrested the suspect, Antwan Magaña.
On Feb. 10, WPD Officers responded to reports of a shooting on the 100 block of Riverside Drive in downtown Watsonville shortly before 5pm. At the scene, they found a victim suffering from a gunshot wound to the chest. He was taken to an unnamed hospital and is expected to survive.
Magaña, a known and active gang member, was taken to the Santa Cruz County Jail on charges of attempted murder and gang enhancements. He was being held Saturday in lieu of $500,000 bail, jail records showed.
