According to the news release, four juveniles were inside the vehicle at the time of the crash. After leaving the scene, they arrived at a residence in the 1800 block of Suaze Street and told people at the home about the crash.

Gonzalez, who was at the residence, went to the crash scene and falsely told officers he had witnessed a white Dodge Charger strike Moreno and flee south on McColl Road at a high rate of speed, according to the news release.

The investigation revealed Gonzalez's statement was allegedly fabricated to mislead investigators and protect the actual suspect.

Gonzalez was arraigned Tuesday, and his bond was set at $5,000.
