Summary
A tow truck driver, Jorge Arias Mayen, is in critical condition after being shot during a service call on the 210 Freeway — the only income source for his wife and 15-year-old son. The shooting occurred near Grand Avenue while responding to a AAA call, and the suspect fled, leading to a high-speed chase that ended early this morning with the suspect’s death at a Covina gas station. The California Highway Patrol continues its investigation. In the meantime, a GoFundMe has raised over $21,000 to help the family, who live in a trailer and rely on community support as they wait for Jorge’s recovery.
