The charges were upgraded to capital murder for the three men accused in the death of a 14-year-old boy earlier this month.

On Feb. 2, 14-year-old Angel Gebara was hit in the head by a stray bullet at his home at the Cassiano Courts on the west side.

The three men arrested in the case are 33-year-old Richard Anthony Montez, 18-year-old Juan Martinez, and 20-year-old Andres Martinez.

A witness, Margarito Vigil said he was driving home with a friend, Benito Gallegos, but they got lost and stopped in the road and saw three men approaching them. They say the men assaulted them and then started shooting at them. The passenger was shot in the head and died days later.

Officers say they recovered three weapons and more than 46 shell casings at the scene.

The three suspects were already in custody and now face murder charges.
