3 arrested in connection with CVS manager’s homicide; 2 to be extradited from Idaho
Three suspects were arrested in connection to the shooting death of a man killed last week at a Carmichael home, according to the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office.
Vitaliy Zaytsev, 41, was killed May 3 at a residence on the 4900 block of Hillridge Way, which is two blocks east of Del Campo High School. Sheriff’s deputies were called just before 11 p.m. to the home, on the corner of Will Rogers Drive, and found Zaytsev with a gunshot wound to his head.
In an updated news release issued Friday, the Sheriff’s Office said Zaytsev was sitting in his vehicle parked in the driveway of his home.
Three suspects drove to his home and one person got out of a vehicle to fire three gunshots, the release said.
Sgt. Amar Gandhi, a spokesman for the Sheriff’s Office, declined to disclose which person fired the weapon and a motive behind the shooting.
On Thursday, the Sheriff’s Office said Michael Espinosa, Miguel Esquibel and Jeannette Nunes were arrested in connection to the homicide.
Espinosa and Esquibel were arrested in Idaho and each face a probation violation, according to Canyon County Sheriff’s Office jail logs. They are expected to be extradited to Sacramento to face the homicide charge, but exactly what charges they face were unknown.
Nunes faces murder and conspiracy charges, and is being held without bail. She is scheduled to be arraigned Monday.
Zaytsev worked as a manager at a CVS on Anderson Avenue in Folsom, said Mike DeAngelis, a CVS spokesman.
