NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Five alleged MS-13 gang members have been charged with murdering a 16-year-old Long Island girl in Baltimore, according to reports.
A grand jury has indicted Jonathan J. Pesquera-Puerto, 19; Edys O. Valenzuela-Rodriguez, 20; Wualter Hernandez-Orellana, 19; Asael Ezequie Gonzalez-Merlos, 16; and Wilson Art Constanza-Galdomez, 21, for the murder of Glen Cove resident Gabriella Alejandra Gonzales Ardon, the Baltimore Sun reported Monday.
Ardon went missing in June 2019, Nassau County police said at the time. A pedestrian found her body on a trail near a Baltimore reservoir this past May, according to the Sun.
All five of the suspects were already being held at the Baltimore County Detention Center in connection with other alleged crimes, the outlet reported.
The alleged gang members may have murdered her because they thought she was affiliated with a rival gang, according to the outlet.
