One reader comment about Benjamin Castro

For the past 2 years a local tagging crew from Azusa called "FCK" has been in an ongoing war with the street gang Azusa 13. From the details and the location of the crime most likely the victim was from "FCK" and his assailant was from Azusa 13 or vice a versa. (Just Speculating)
