Police have arrested two men whom they say played a role in the death of
a 25-year-old man whose body was found Monday morning in a South San Jose
neighborhood.
San Jose police arrested Samuel Rose, 19, and Ronald Correa, 20, both of San
Jose, on Monday, according to Officer Jermaine Thomas, a department
spokesman.
Rose is scheduled to be arraigned this afternoon on charges of accessory to
murder and theft or unauthorized use of a vehicle, according to Amy Cornell,
a spokeswoman with the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office.
Correa, who was arrested on suspicion of murder, is scheduled to be
arraigned Friday, Cornell said.
Monday morning, the body of Fisaha Isaac Gebremichael, 25, of San Jose, was
discovered lying on the curb at about 5:30 a.m. by a resident who lives in
the neighborhood of the 600 block of Braxton Drive, located south of Hellyer
Avenue.
Gebremichael died of a gunshot wound, according to police, who have not
released any other details about the slaying.
"No motive has been established yet and the investigation is ongoing,"
Thomas said.
The slaying, the city's fourth killing this year, does not appear to be
gang-related, according to police.
