Two alleged gang members have pleaded not guilty in connection with a fatal shooting. 22-year-old Victor Hugo Ramos is accused of shooting and killing Abraham Lizama two weeks ago after an argument on Del Monte beach. 19-year-old Esmeralda Garcia is charged with being an accessory to the murder. A third suspect, a 17-year old male, has been charged, and will be tried in juvenile court. Both suspects are Salinas residents and are believed to be Sureno gang members.
