Police have arrested a suspect in the killing of 2-year-old Ka'Mya Robinson.

Anthony Chacon, 28, was arrested July 8th in Calexico and booked into the Imperial County Jail.

He was transferred to the downtown jail in Bakersfield, where he was booked around 7:30 Tuesday evening. He is charged with first degree murder, attempted murder and participation in a street gang.

Police say a group of men in an SUV got into a fight with two other men at the corner of Virginia and Robinson Streets in April. Investigators believe Chacon fired a shot at the men from the SUV, but the bullet struck Ka'Mya as she played outside her south Bakersfield home with her twin sister.

Chacon is due in court to face the charges on Thursday.

I know, I screwed up my grammar, so you grammar police out there, don't get your panties in a wad. The 23KERO site allows editing a post but I can't here

The only way the Mexican Gov't will agree to extradite is to promise that we will not be execute him. But at least the POS was caught.
