DESERT HOT SPRINGS, CALIF. — A 16-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of shooting five other teenagers at a party Saturday morning, killing one and critically injuring another after an argument spun out of control, authorities said.

Israel Larios, 19, of unincorporated Sky Valley was dead when officers arrived at the 66600 block of Granada Avenue just after midnight, police said. Four partygoers had also been shot in the arm, wrist, torso or hip.

Two boys, ages 17 and 15, and a 16-year-old girl were treated and released from Desert Regional Medical Center in Palm Springs. Another 17-year-old boy was in stable condition.

The gunman, whose name has not been released, was arrested without incident several hours later at a relative's home in Las Palmas, an unincorporated area near Desert Hot Springs. He had a semiautomatic handgun in his pocket, authorities said. The boy was booked into Indio Juvenile Hall without bail on suspicion of murder.

The gunman, who was not a gang member, had not had any disagreements with partygoers earlier in the evening, said Desert Hot Springs Police Sgt. Radames Gil. He appeared to be sober during the shooting, said Gil, and told authorities that he fired into a crowd with no intended targets.

"All this was, was a stupid argument," said Gil, who is leading the investigation. "For somebody to die over this, it's just a tragedy."

The shootings took place inside a vacant one-story stucco home, which sits among mostly aging buildings with dirt yards and no sidewalks.

Though the home's residents had moved out at least a week ago, neighbors said, some of the teens had been having parties there. One young man had promised several neighbors that Saturday's party would be his last.

The home's owners, whom property records identified as Edward and Rosario Persina, could not be reached for comment.

About 50 teens and young adults, many of whom attended nearby Desert Hot Springs High School, had been drinking beer and listening to loud rap music for several hours, neighbors said, and some had started fighting in the street.

Inside the house, Gil said, the gunman was hanging out with a handful of people in a bedroom. Several other partygoers told him to leave the room. The teens began shouting at each other, and the disagreement quickly escalated to a scuffle.

Nearly two dozen partygoers rushed into the room to watch the dispute, which lasted just minutes, Gil said.

Then "some egos got in the way and the shooter started firing," he said.

Monica Perkins, who lives across the street, said: "I just thought they were breaking windows or something. I didn't know they were shooting each other."

Partygoers screamed, dashed into the street and hid in their cars, said neighbors. The girl who was shot ran to a neighbor to get help.

Disabled Block Bus Terminal, Attack Policies of Greyhound

September 05, 1989|SCOTT HARRIS | Times Staff Writer

A group of activists for disabled rights steered their wheelchairs into Greyhound's downtown terminal Monday afternoon, disrupting busy Labor Day bus travel in an attempt to pressure the transit giant into improving access for the disabled.

The half-hour show of civil disobedience ended with police hoisting three protesters into the back of a police van. Moments earlier, their wheelchairs had been backed against the fenders of departing buses, their voices raised in singing "We Shall Overcome."

"Don't you think it would be better to put (wheelchair) lifts on buses than arrest us?" protester Bill Bolte told a Greyhound representative minutes before Bolte was arrested. "We can send people to the moon, but we can't put lifts on buses, right?"

Greyhound Accused of Discrimination

The installation of wheelchair lifts--common on many public transit systems--is one goal of the protesters. Accusing Greyhound of discrimination, the members of Americans Disabled for Access to Public Transportation said they also object to the company's policy of requiring attendants to travel with disabled passengers, of refusing to carry motorized wheelchairs with wet cell batteries and of providing only $250 in liability insurance for wheelchairs that may cost thousands of dollars.

A Greyhound representative in Los Angeles referred all questions to officials in the corporate headquarters in Dallas. The corporate office was closed Monday. Previously, Greyhound officials have emphasized what they call a "helping hands" policy that allows attendants of wheelchair passengers to ride for free.

"That's not dignified," protester Yvonne Nau said of Greyhound's policy. Lifts on public bus systems have allowed thousands to travel metropolitan areas without assistance, protesters said.

One protester carried a sign labeling Greyhound "a dirty dog." Although Greyhound is a private corporation, it travels public roads, they stressed. "Our taxes are paying for (the roads)," Nau said.

After being taken to the Police Department's Central Division station, protesters Bolte, Lillibeth Navarro and Don Persina were cited for blocking a sidewalk and released.

Long-Running War

The demonstration by about 30 people was a small skirmish in the long-running war over increasing access for the disabled. Legislation recently introduced in Washington would require all carriers to install wheelchair lifts.

Last Labor Day, Bolte and other protesters were arrested in a similar demonstration at the Greyhound station. In March of 1988, ADAPT members were arrested for chipping away at the raised curbs on a stretch of Hollywood Boulevard they have dubbed "The Walk of Shame." Despite promises from City Hall, curb cuts giving them access to the sidewalks still have not been made, the activists said.

The youngest protester, 14-year-old Ryan Duncanwood, called Monday's protest a success. Unable to speak, Ryan answered questions with a computer printer attached to his motorized wheelchair.

"He has cerebral palsy," his mother, Karen, explained. "But mostly he's a victim of discrimination."
