During the course of this investigation, Victor Longoria was identified as a suspect in this attempted homicide
investigation. I, Det G. Raya #3345 authored a Ramey arrest Warrant listing Longoria as a suspect.

Santa Ana Police Department's Gang Sergeant M. Lemmon #3174 notified me via telephone that the Gang
Suppression Unit had detained Longoria during a traffic stop, as he was leaving his residence. Sergenat Lemmon
arranged for Longoria to be transported to the Santa Ana Police Department. The Gang Suppression Unit also
conducted a probation check at the Longoria residence. During a search of the residence, detectives recovered
multiple rounds of various ammunition in the living room, along with a single round of ammunition in Longoria's
bedroom. Detective T. Liggett #3488 documented the arrest and probation search at the Longoria residence under

I read Longoria his Miranda Rights from the Santa Ana Police Department Miranda Form, verbatim. Longoria stated,
"yeah" to understanding all his rights. Longoria identified himself as Victor Longoria Jr.
I asked Longoria when was the last time he was transported to the Santa Ana Police Department. Longoria stated in
November, 2021 or 2022 he was visiting his cousin-Daniel Quirino in the cul-de-sac of Pine Street and Bristol Street.
When asked if the criminal street gangs, Calle Flores and Delhi were allies, Longoria stated there were some of

It should be noted, on 11/16/2021, Longoria was contacted with Dante Castro and Daniel Quirino in the area of 1200

Longoria stated he is documented as a Calle Flores gang member but when asked if he was a member, he only
stated he resides in the area. However, Longoria admitted to getting a Florida Marlins emblem tattoo on the right side
of his face. I know Calle Flores gang members to use Florida Marlins sports memorabilia as gang indicia to represent
the "F" in "Flores." Longoria stated he has lived at his father's residence, known to be

Longoria stated he has currently been working as a construction worker in the City of Westminster, CA for
approximately six months. He stated he works Monday-Friday 6:30am-3pm. I asked Longoria if he remembered
where he was on the day of this incident. Longoria stated he did not remember, however when I reminded Longoria
the day of the incident involved an officer involved shooting he appeared to remember the day. Longoria remembered
he received a text asking if he was okay. When he confirmed he was okay, the unknown subject advised him the
police had a perimeter in the area. Longoria remembered he was at the Gardens Casino in the City of Hawaiian
Gardens, CA. When describing his schedule on the day of this incident, Longoria stated he arrived at his residence
from work at approximately 330pm-4pm. He showered and then left at approximately 430pm-5pm. He stated they
arrived at the casino at approximately 4pm-5pm and claimed to have been there for a "long time". Initially, Longoria

When I asked Longoria if he was with Quirino on the day of this incident and he stated, he did not think he was. I then
showed Longoria a photograph of Dante Castro's Chevrolet Suburban ( ) and asked if he recognized the
vehicle. Longoria admitted to seeing the vehicle once or twice but claims he did not know who the vehicle belonged to
or where he remembered seeing the vehicle. I asked Longoria if he has ever been in the vehicle and he stated he did

I advised Longoria that during the November, 2021 incident there was an armed suspect named Dante "Dlow" Castro
who was arrested during that incident. I also advised Longoria that Castro owns the Chevrolet Suburban in the
photograph, which I had shown him earlier. I again asked Longoria if he had ever been in the vehicle. Longoria
replied, "Nah".
I asked Longoria for the phone number of the cellphone that was located on him at the time he was detained and he
stated his cellphone number was 714-822-9372. Longoria confirmed the phone located in his possession was the
phone he uses and it was operable. It should be noted, I later called the phone number provided by Longoria and
confirmed the number was operable and assigned to his cellphone. Longoria claimed to use the social media apps
SnapChat and Instagram.
I advised Longoria we were investigating this attempted homicide investigation and asked if he had any text
messages proving he was at the Gardens Casino during this incident. Longoria told us, "probably don't". We asked if
there were any witnesses we could call to verify if he was at the Garden Casino the day of this incident but Longoria

I then showed Longoria a surveillance still image showing the two armed suspect exiting the suspect vehicle. I pointed
at the armed suspect exiting the rear passenger seat and asked Longoria who the subject was. Longoria stated he did
know.
Longoria was advised a probation check was conducted at his residence, where there was ammunition located.

I was contacted via email by Senior Correction Officer C. Smith #3043, who advised me, Longoria had made one jail
call while he was housed at the Santa Ana Jail. She emailed me an audio file containing the jail call, which I
monitored. Longoria called , which a record check confirmed was the number of Longoria's father,
After listening to the jail call, I did not observe anything of evidentiary value.
I later uploaded a copy of the jail call into Evidence.com
