A 16-year-old Vancouver boy wanted in a homicide investigation in Clackamas County will voluntarily return to Oregon for prosecution.
Court records indicate Cesar Soto Gama is suspected of second-degree murder in the shooting death of 16-year-old Juan Tomas Santos Bautista. He is also suspected of first-degree assault and unlawful use of a weapon.
On Wednesday, Soto Gama was back in Clark County Juvenile Court to waive his right to contest extradition to Oregon, which could be completed by the time of a follow-up hearing scheduled for Friday.
