Police said 17-year-old Itzel Espinoza was found dead inside a car that was parked in an alley in the early morning hours
A 19-year-old man was arrested last Friday on suspicion of first-degree murder by facilitation and a 16-year-old boy is facing a charge of abandonment of a body.
Police said the third suspect is an 18-year-old woman who allegedly shot the teenage girl.
According to court records, Espinoza argued with the woman and then ran to a parked car, got inside and locked the door.
The woman banged on a car window, demanding Espinoza get out.
Witnesses told police that the woman asked the 19-year-old suspect for his gun and then fired multiple shots at Espinoza.
