I read the homicide report everyday... to keep up with my surroundings. I came across the comment section and seen Angels name. I knew him personally. I can PROMISE you he was not from Pomona 456 gang like other commenters "said", I say this with 100% certainty. That is a lie. He was a pretty cool guy from the short time I knew him and his kids were always really awesome great kids that are really respectful, kind, loving and smart. Kids reflect there surroundings-so that is all you need to know about Angel, if you have no truth to your words. I think this page will be looked at for his kids to reflect his story of his last chapter. So don't ruin it with lies. I hope you kids find peace in your hearts as well as justice. God bless you.
