On Jan. 7-8, 2021, the Long Beach Police Department arrested 4 suspects in connection with the Dec. 16, 2020 shooting death of 14-year-old Long Beach resident Arthur Touch.
Through their investigation, detectives uncovered evidence indicating that a dispute took place between the victim and the four suspects. The dispute escalated to a physical assault which led to the victim being shot prior to the suspects fleeing the scene.
“Any loss of life due to violence is unacceptable, but the murder of a 14-year-old should be an outrage to our entire community,” stated Chief of Police Robert G. Luna. “I want to thank our Special Investigations Division detectives for their relentless efforts to identify and arrest the suspects responsible for this senseless crime.”

“Any loss of life due to violence is unacceptable, but the murder of a 14-year-old should be an outrage to our entire community,” said LBPD Police Chief Robert Luna.
Touch was described as a nice, quiet kid who was athletically gifted and bright.
Touch was found on the 1400 block of St. Louis Avenue on Dec. 16 with gunshot wounds in his upper body. He died at the scene.
Police now believe a dispute between the victim and four suspects escalated into a physical assault, which then led to the shooting, officials said.
They executed three search warrants at addresses in the Poly High and Washington neighborhoods and arrested four men on suspicion of murder: 19-year-old Jose Martinez, 18-year-old Jacob Valentin, 25-year-old Junior Parra and 23-year-old Ricardo Parra. They are all being held on a $2 million bail.
