A California teen faces charges after he allegedly shot and killed his best friend during a fight about getting to sit in the passenger seat of a car, authorities said.

 

Sergio Orozco, who is from Fontana, was arrested Monday in the shooting death of 19-year-old friend Jalen Wilson, news station KFSN reported.

 

The pals were leaving a party Sunday night when they reportedly started to fight over who would get to ride shotgun in a car.

 

Orozco, also 19, then allegedly pulled a gun on Wilson and shot him in the chest, according to officials.

 

Authorities were called to the scene and rushed Wilson to an area hospital, where he died from his injuries, KFSN reported.

 

Police arrested Orozco the following day on suspicion of murder. He was being held Friday at West Valley Detention Center on $1,750,000 bail, according to court records.

 

He is scheduled to appear in court next June 20.
