Trial Expected To Get Underway For Suspected Shooter

Opening statements are expected to begin Tuesday morning in a mental competency trial for a Los Angeles area gang member.

21 year old, Anthony Magdaleno, is accused of murdering another man at a Desert Hot Springs supermarket.

Witnesses say Magdaleno shot 45 year old, Tony Chen, in front of the Palm Drive Von’s store after talking to him for less than a minute.

Two of the three doctors who have examined Magdaleno, found him incompetent to stand trial.

He could face 50 years to life in prison, if convicted.
