SAN DIEGO The man accused of shooting five people in the Gaslamp Quarter last week, killing one and injuring four, pled not guilty in court Thursday and will remain in custody without bail.
Travis Fereydoun Sarreshteh, 32, of San Diego, is accused in last Thursday s shootings, in which police alleges he used an untraceable ghost gun to gun down the victims.
The shooting began at about 10:30 p.m. on April 22 when the alleged gunman approached 28-year-old Justice Boldin, who was working as a valet at the Pendry San Diego hotel at the time. Authorities said the defendant pulled out a handgun and shot Boldin. Witness reported seeing the suspect begin to walk away then quickly turning around to fire another shot at the victim, who died at the scene.
Afterward, the suspect began to walk north on Fifth Avenue and had an argument with a group of men. SDPD Lt. Andra Brown said the defendant opened fire again, striking four more victims at Fifth and Island avenues before taking off and walking away in what was described as a casual manner.
