Felony charges are expected to be filed Wednesday against a man suspected of fatally shooting a 39-year-old Temecula resident.
Micah Chazz Harris, 22, of Temecula, allegedly gunned down Aaron Bowers early Saturday morning at a residence in the 32900 block of Josheroo Court, just south of Highway 79, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.
Harris was booked into the Byrd Detention Center in Murrieta on suspicion of murder immediately after the alleged attack. He was being held in lieu of $1 million bail.
Prosecutors received the case from sheriff’s homicide investigators and were reviewing it on Tuesday.
According to sheriff’s Sgt. Jarred Bishop, patrol deputies were called to the Josheroo Court house by the suspect shortly before 5 a.m. Saturday.
“(Harris) advised that he had just shot another adult male inside the residence,” Bishop said. “Deputies arrived on scene and detained Harris. Several other additional individuals were located at the residence. Deputies checked the interior and located (the victim).”
The other parties in the home, whose identities were not disclosed, were questioned but not arrested.
The circumstances behind the alleged attack were not provided, including a possible motive.
Background information on the suspect was also unavailable.
