A grand jury in the Superior Court of Guam late today handed down an indictment against the man accused in the the deadly shooting of A.J. Mendiola in Hagat.  35-year-old Nathan Ojeda has been charged with aggravated murder and murder along with having a deadly weapon.

He remains held on a quarter-million dollars cash bail. Earlier this month, Ojeda allegedly told officers he was driving past Mendiola’s home when he was shot at. 

A witness, however, allegedly told investigators he returned fire to defend Mendiola and himself from the gunfire coming from Ojeda’s jeep.

Ojeda later self-surrendered to authorities after suffering from a gunshot to the leg.

A motive for the shooting remains a mystery.
