Indio, CA — A 19-year-old man, identified as Gideon Gonzalez Jr. of Indio, has been formally charged with murder in connection with a deadly shooting that occurred over the weekend outside a Food 4 Less store.
Gonzalez is accused of fatally shooting 26-year-old Lorenzo Segoviano on the evening of Saturday, February 3, 2024.
In addition to the murder charge, Gonzalez faces two counts of assault with a firearm and two counts of child cruelty. He is scheduled to be arraigned on these charges later today at the Larson Justice Center in Indio.
According to a statement from the Indio Police Department, officers responded to reports of a shooting around 5:40 p.m. at 82124 Highway 111.
Upon arrival, they discovered Segoviano suffering from a gunshot wound.
Despite officers’ attempts to administer life-saving measures, Segoviano was pronounced dead at the scene.
Witnesses reported that the suspect fled the scene, moving southeast through the shopping center. Officers were able to quickly locate and detain Gonzalez nearby.
A firearm believed to have been used in the shooting was also recovered at the scene, police confirmed.

Gonzalez was arrested shortly after the shooting and booked into the Southwest Detention Center on $1 million bail the following morning, according to inmate records.
