Two Arrested in Grandson Slaying

Police today confirmed two arrests in the slaying of a 24-year-old man who was shot when he came to his grandfather's aid during a robbery.

A third suspect is still being sought in the Jan. 9 shooting death of Danilo Estuardo Morales.

Rene Ramirez, 29, of Mission Hills, and Evin Adonis Ortiz, 22, of Valley Glen, were both booked on suspicion of murder at the Van Nuys jail and are being held without bail, said LAPD Cmdr. Andrew Smith.

"Detectives have been working around the clock, developing leads," he said, adding he had not yet been briefed on "specifically what led them to these guys."
