Murder suspect mistakenly released from custody
A murder suspect was mistakenly released from custody in Southern California Tuesday afternoon and remained at large, authorities said.
Steven Manzo, 23, was charged with fatally shooting a man in Long Beach in 2018. Manzo was arrested a year ago and had been incarcerated since then.
On Tuesday, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office informed Long Beach police that Manzo had been released from custody. Officers were unable to locate him.
“Upon further review, it was determined he should not have been released,” Long Beach police said in a statement Wednesday.
