Arrests have been made in connection to the killing of six-year-old Aiden Leos who was struck by gunfire on the 55 Freeway according to a law-enforcement source.
The source confirmed both the driver and the shooter were arrested in Costa Mesa around 1:30 p.m.
There were no immediate details on what led up to the arrest.
The steadily growing reward in the shooting of Aiden Leos, who was struck by gunfire from another car May 21 on the 55 Freeway in Orange, started with an offer of $50,000 and increased in the week following the shooting. The money includes funds from the family, businesses and Orange County officials.
Aiden was riding with his mother when he was struck by a bullet in his abdomen. He was on his way to kindergarten.
The shooting stemmed from a road rage confrontation, investigators said.
The California Highway Patrol released a photo of a white Volkswagen Golf Sportwagon, possibly a 2018 or 2019 model, sought in connection with the shooting.
