EAST COUNTY
An 18-year-old man, arrested last week in a hotel and casino on the Las Vegas Strip, is accused of shooting a 16-year-old boy outside of a cannabis dispensary near El Cajon earlier this month.
A U.S. Marshals Service fugitive task force based in Las Vegas arrested Richard Anthony Bell, of El Cajon, about 11 p.m. Friday on a warrant issued in San Diego County three days earlier in connection with the Dec. 4 shooting, sheriff’s Sgt. Jacob Klepach said.
Bell was being held on $2 million bail. He was expected to be extradited to San Diego County, Klepach said.
