About eight hours later, Michael Marquez, Lopez's 33-year-old nephew, was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital in Orange after being shot in the leg outside his home in the 200 block of North Jackson Street, which is about a block south of where his uncle was shot and killed.
Marquez reportedly told police he was standing near his garage when a car pulled up and an occupant pulled out a gun and fired several times before the car sped away. The shootings are being investigated as gang-related crimes.
