Sheriff's Homicide detectives arrested a woman suspected of killing a 42-year-old man in Alpine.
"During our investigation we were able to determine that he was actually murdered there," said Greg Rylaarsdam, a lieutenant with the San Diego County Sheriff homicide detail.
Angela Meza, 47, was arrested in connection with the death of a man, whose body was found by deputies with fatal gunshot wounds inside a house, according to the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.
Just after 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, deputies received a call of a suicidal man at Viejas Grade in Alpine. When they arrived at the scene, they found the man's unconscious body and requested emergency crews.
Paramedics tried to perform life-saving measures but the victim succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Meza was booked into the Las Colinas Detention and Reentry Facility on a suspected murder charge, confirmed deputies.
An autopsy will be conducted by the Medical Examiner's Office to determine the victim's cause of death and identity.
