BANNING, CA — A felon accused of killing a man and trying to kill a half-dozen others while shooting into traffic at a San Jacinto intersection was charged Thursday with murder and other offenses.

Julio Cesar Rodarte, 39, of San Jacinto, was arrested Monday following a Riverside County Sheriff's Department investigation into the attack at West Seventh Street and South San Jacinto Avenue.

Along with murder, Rodarte is charged with six counts of attempted murder, shooting at occupied vehicles, being a felon in possession of a gun and sentence-enhancing gun and great bodily injury allegations.

The defendant, who is being held without bail at the Smith Correctional Facility in Banning, was slated to make his initial court appearance Thursday afternoon at the Banning Justice Center.

He allegedly killed 42-year-old Victor Hugo Leon of San Jacinto.

A GoFundMe account is set up for the family of 42-year-old Victor Hugo Leon, identified as the man who died in the shooting.

The page says Leon leaves behind a wife, three sons and a daughter. He was almost home after leaving his overnight work shift when he was shot.
