Two brothers fatally shot inside car in 2006, CA cops say. Now there’s an arrest
A man has been arrested nearly two decades after two brothers were fatally shot inside a car, California deputies say.
Richard Ferris, 50, was arrested Friday, Aug. 1, in connection with the 2006 slayings, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office said in an Aug. 5 news release.
Deputies said they responded to a report of a shooting in Moreno Valley just before 2 a.m. Jan. 29, 2006.
When they arrived, deputies said they found two men inside a car who had been fatally shot.
The men were later identified as brothers Louie Granado, 24, and Glenn Granado, 34, who were both from Moreno Valley, deputies said.
“Several years of extensive investigation” led investigators to identify Ferris as a suspect in the brothers’ slaying, deputies said.
However, at the time, investigators did not have enough evidence to bring criminal charges against Ferris, “and the case went cold,” deputies said.
Then, in April 2025, deputies said its cold case team reviewed the case and found new leads, and it was reopened.
Months later, deputies said they arrested Ferris in Boyle Heights.
Ferris, who is being held without bail on two counts of murder, was scheduled to appear in court Aug. 6, jail records show.
An investigation is ongoing, deputies said.
Moreno Valley is about a 75-mile drive east from Los Angeles.
