A 34-year-old man from Ontario, Derick Laija, has been arrested following a violent incident that resulted in one death and two injuries in San Bernardino County.

The attack occurred on September 17, when deputies responded to a home on Bluegrass Avenue shortly before 8 p.m.

Upon arrival, officers found three individuals with serious injuries, reports KTLA News.
