RANCHO CORDOVA (CBS13) – The suspect or suspects who gunned down three teens in Rancho Cordova Sunday are still on the loose.

Rancho Cordova Police and Sacramento County Sheriff’s deputies received multiple calls Sunday afternoon just after 4:30 saying three people had been shot and were lying in the front yard of a home in the 10100 block of Malaga Way.

When officers arrived, they found three teens with gunshot wounds.  One was pronounced dead at the scene.  The two other teens were taken to the hospital where they later died.

Detectives have not released the names or ages of the three teens shot and killed, but a close source says two of them were middle-schoolers.

The shooting is still being investigated. However, officers believe it may have been a drive-by but no one saw the car or the shooter.

Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call the Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau at (916) 874-5115, Crime Alert at (916) 443-HELP, or send a text message tip to 274637 (CRIMES) then enter SACTIP followed by the tip information. Those who call or text can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000.

    cowards. lwhat ever happened to a good old passionate butt kicking? little kids hiding behing their big guns making them think they run this town. grow up. id like to feel safe in my own neighborhood and not worry about if someone elses petty drama will get me shot. lets not throw our lives or others away on something stupid.

  • Tish

    “One victim was killed at the scene” Omg! Who writes for this news organization! The proper way to word this is ” One victim died at the scene”
    Of course he was killed at the scene!

  • James

    This was literally right down the street from my home. My mom lived on that block of Malaga till only a few months ago. Bunch of cowards. These same killers would be too scared to look me in the face walking down the street, but would (as daniel so eloquently stated) hide behind a gun. Anyone can fire a gun. It takes a MAN to look into another’s eyes unarmed.

  • Edward

    ban all firearms, everyone knows that guns are made for the sole purpose of killing. taxpayers will continue to pay millions and millions of dollars each year for this nonsense. ban it and we wouldn’t have this problem.

  • Joe Blow

    That’s why it’s called Rancho cambodia.

  • Gun rights

    I guess you think we should ban kitchen knives to so people will stop stabbing each other! Banning guns will do nothing theres to many guns on the street already all that will do is take guns away from the people to protect themselves. If you ban guns there not just going to magically disappear.

  • Sophia

    R.I.P Bubba, Jamir, and Rob..

  • Josh

    Banning guns won’t keep them out the hands of cirminals. I say we should legalize guns and make the criminals wonder who’s packing. They wouldn’t be so quick to pull out a pistol if grandma was carrying!

  • http://thatguyisawesome.wordpress.com Kevin

    The kitchen knives-guns comparison is ridiculous. Kitchen knives have an innocent purpose–preparing food. A gun has only one purpose–taking life. Guns probably shouldn’t be banned entirely, but there do need to be tight, reasonable restrictions on their ownership and usage.

  • Tony

    Sophia
    can you please tell us the ages of the victoms?

  • Sharron Flynn

    E&K are problably the very type that wants to be sure Granny isn’t packin so that she is an easy target.

  • Becky

    What a shame. Three young boys just beginning their lives. My sympathies to their families. Rest in peace.

  • Joe

    Guns are the only tool that allows an innocent citizen to be equal with the thug that wants to murder, rape, or assault them. It allows the 80 year old, the small man or woman, and the kind and decent in general, to protect themselves. Outlawing guns only prevents the innocent from protecting themselves. Outlawing guns insures that the violent rule, and insures that ONLY the violent will have guns. Outlawing guns in the hands of the innocent is immoral.

  • Tony

    Not Funny at all

  • usaf1sgt

    Banning guns is not the answer. Neither is making it making it more restrictive. These punks already broke several laws before pulling the trigger. Want to deter gun crimes?? Simple….use a gun in a crime, go to jail. No plea bargaining, no early release, first offense. Kill someone, automatic life without parole. Expand on a citizens right to carry. All evidence shows that in carry states, gun crimes against people go down. Lets reward the law abiding American citizen instead of presenting an engraved invitation to the criminals.

  • The ages of the victims

    15, 15, and 17

  • ikeepsitreal

    this generation dont know the difference between entertainment(video games, movies, music) and reality. they talk tough, but can only answer their problems w/ guns and violence. kids are to ashamed and sensitive to take an a$$whipping nowadays. cowards!

    ( i agree with josh )

    I guess you can’t speak your mind with out someone pulling your c0mment…. must be the new 5th admendment…

  • Larry, Susanville, Ca

    ..and you can put a sign on the outside of your house stating that “there are no firearms inside this house”. Will that make you feel safer?

  • Rancho mother

    Wow I heard all the cops today I live not to far, that’s so sad I pray for there families I have a 11 yes old and 17 yr old i should feel safe with my kids walking around here but I dont

  • lil kim

  • Kat

    Give them all guns and throw them together, let them kill each other and put them six feet under where they belong. Rather than the taxpayers paying for these low-life punks in prison. You have to believe that they are uneducated and don’t ever plan on having a job while living off the system.

  • jan

    the thing is, is that you cant get a good aim and take down 3 people with a kitchen knife from a car going 30mph….guns have an advantage…duh! and they need to go away!

  • Carri

    So, too bad those CHILDREN were not packin, huh?

  • jan

    Its called Rancho Cambodia because in the early 80′s, Cambodians, from CAMBODIA migrated here for a better life. It has nothing to do with them.

  • Mother 4

    Really? Reading some of the comments really makes me angry. 3 young men lost their lives. Gunned down while doing what kids do,riding their bikes. Their familes at home waiting for them to walk through the door for dinner. All I see comments like thems were my Niggas..R.I.P Hommie,really? Show some damn respect! I am soooo sick of trash coming from every where. We are not shocked by anything anymore and its just sad. Its a scary time to raise children in…especially when u have parents that care more about their next fix or a peice of ass then their children..then their children start the cycle all over again. I am talking about every walk of life,every color,every background. Let’s get it together people! Time to own what choices u make and do something good with your life….NO EXCUSES!

  • Sad

    People kill people bottom line. Stop blaming the insterments they choose. If you outlaw guns then only the outlaws will have guns then you can throw your kitchen knives at them. Im sad for the people!

  • ELDAVI

    To everyone who is calling for stricter gun laws in light of the tragedy , consider this little tidbit: If guns kill people, then pencils misspell words, cars drive drunk, and spoons make people fat. Remember: Hold the person accountable for their actions, not the means they chose.

    iT’S SAD TO SAY THAT WE DO LIVE IN A WORLD THAT IS GETTING MORE AND MORE VIOLENT, AS AN EX GANG BANGER I CAN SAY THE ONLY THING THAT KEPT ME AWAY FROM COMITING A CRIME WAS THE NOSEY NEIGHBOR, CAMERAS AND VERY ACTIVE POLICE PRESENCE. aNOTHER THING WAS RUNNING INTO THE OCCASIONAL VICTIM THAT HAD THE BALLS TO STAND UP FOR THEMSELVES OR FOR ANOTHER PERSONS PROTECTION. i Am NOW MUCH OLDER AND WILL ALWAYS TAKE LOOK OUT FOR MY FAMILY AND ME AND THE SAFETY OF ANYONE CLOSE TO ME. i WILL SAY THESE KIDS NEED A GOOD OL BEAT DOWN.

BECAUSE IF YOU TAKE OFF AS FAST AS YOU CAN RIGHT NOW…… YOU MAY BE ABLE TO GET AWAY WITH THIS. THAT IS IF YOU KNOW HOW MAKE YOURSELF JUST VANISH INTO THIN AIR AND NEVER BE RECOGNIZED BY ONE WHOM MAY JUST KNOW YOUR NAME(S)!

    you kill mothers. now you kill babies too.

    YOU R DONE I PROMISE THAT I KNOW U ARE DONE

  • 5th admendment

    Government run, they are trying to cause the chaos on purpose. They are trying ti ban guns, so that when they take immediate police control we have nothing to fight back with.

    Government is here to ruin us, not help us.

    RIP Innocent victims.

  • Paul

    I’ve carried a “legal” gun for four years. I’ve never had a reason to pull it out, yet. I think the more armed, legal, educated people we have out there, the safer everyone is. In Vermont anyone can carry a concealed weapon, the bad guys have no idea who’s carrying protection. The crime rate in the entire state of Vermont is less than the Sacramento area!

  • Brigette

    How about we all leave our own personal views on this alone for a minute and just say a prayer for the families that are without loved one today… and a prayer for the one’s who did this, as they are obviously dealing with some serious, deep rooted issues.

  • angelictrouble

    Whether anyone at either one of these scenes is actually a “vitim” remains to be seen

  • angelictrouble

    The title “victim” should be used lightly unitl the facts are in. People can become angered by that but the truth is hard to argue with and so far the known facts in both stories point out that the only victims are the ones unlucky enough to live near this nonsense.

  • la la la

    oh my god i cnt believe this happened i kno 2 ov them and some of that info is wrong r.i.p guys u will be missed !!!

  • Dave B.

    Bridgette….At least we now know who it is that keeps voting for Pelosi and Boxer…..

  • Linda Anderson

    Yes, first and foremost, let’s pray for those who have lost a loved one due to this horrific crime. But let us also remember that voting is critical in that it allows us access to leadership which will provide us with the means to protect ourselves and protect our families, something that Pelosi and Boxer seem to be lacking.

  • Thunder Kitty

    It’s always funny when someone attempts to call someone out about their “grammer”, when their grammar is worse. Go back to school and this time pay attention.

  • James

    that makes no sense

  • William Newsreader

    yeah right… the more guns we have out in this world, the safer we will all be. This logic is completely ridiculous. Even more ridiculous is comparing Vermont with Rancho Cordova, CA. ya think the difference in violence might have something to do with gangs? How many hoods do you have in VT? You think the gangs in CA are worried about you and your gun? LOL

  • junior

    That’s because California loves their illegals and their gangs.

  • Ms. G

    This is tragic and horrifying incident that has happened in my neighborhood and please lets focus on these families that this has happened to. Can’t we do with out all this gang retaleation if there is any and have peace .

  • Sakaii

    Because California is not proactive, we will continue to see this type of carniage in our neighborhoods. If you think about it, it really doesn’t matter where you live anymore. If the bad guys want to get you they will. Paull I am sure that people just like you that have never experienced any violence was saying and thinking the same way that you are that is until it happened to them or someone that was close to them. I pray that it never happens to you or anyone that you love. My prayers also goes out to the family who have lost their loved one. To those who did this, GOD sees and knows all. Do the right thing and turn yourselves or self in. You will not get one good nights sleep until you do.

  • callie

    all the young men in rancho cordova have made the conclusion that the OK Program for young men in this area prevented alot of these events from occuring, i am a friend of the family of these three boys and would not like to see any of this continue, if we bring the OK program we may just save young boys from the streets and put them in the right path.

  • Faith Ann Lillie

    Its a sad place in rancho right now. there is nothing funny about this.

  • Jenna

    To Junior where does it say in this report that they were illegals or gang members? Leave it to stupid people to add politics to every crime and make it out to be the cause of someone who is Illegal. Stick to the story, and pray for the family of the three. RIP.

  • Debora

    Cordova Neighbourhood Church at Coloma Blv and Cordova is having a time of prayer for the family,friends and the community open to everyone from 6:30-8pm

  • anonymous

    Regardless of any child’s affiliation (and yes these boys were children) be it what it may, how dare any of you begrudge thes boys families their grief.

    Have a heart and show some sympathy and put yourselves in the shoes of these boys parents. You should be ashamed of yourselves acting like this could never happen to you or yours.

  • Debbie

    I don’t mean to come across as heartless but……. recently in that exact area there was a rash of burglaries by 3 teens on bikes. I know this because a friends home had an attempted break in but they were home and scared 3 kids off, they got on bikes and fled. They had managed to rob the house next door and other homes had been robbed in that area as well. I am NOT saying these were the same 3 and I’m NOT saying this was right even if they were but people around here might be taking the law into their own hands because Rancho Police are more worried about citations than safety of our community.

  • Debbie

    I agree and we are armed and ready to protect our family and our property!

  • lil tee

    man i herd rob dead damn

  • Denille Horton

    Febuary 13, 2011 will always rember. Those 3 younge men will never be forgotten thase young men did not deserve to die they were good boys my son was close to all 3 of them he is really heart broken over this. My Prayers go out to the families as i will continue to pray for you, i feel this no time to judge or point fingers three good young men are gone and that is sad and heart breaking in its self, instead of judging lets show these parents some compassion and kindness to help them through this sad heart breaking time

  • Plain Facts

    For those missing the “full” story, a gun (not the shooters) was found next to one of the victims…Gee, let’s take a “guess” and say “maybe” these were not the “model” kids everyone thinks. People are saying…”how could this happen”?? Get a clue!

  • 916 lady

    Debbie you are SO right!! Rancho Cordova’s police are ALL about getting their tickets!! It’s crazy. The other day I saw one cop pull over a man on a bicycle (really?!!) and then 2 min later I see him pulling over a car. What happened to police that just PATROL these days especially in BAD neighborhoods! Um, i think that would at least help. But, no they steady worry about stupid citations and their quota.

  • Diamondketo

    i live like a street where that happened and its pretty sad…i can see all the candles and such :( All i know is two of them is my friends relative and i will not give any other further info. If any cops would like to investigate get more info from local middle schools around. But when life puts you down u have a choice to get back up. Ima teenager around Rancho Cordova and i live by Malaga way.take care world

  • 916

    I knew two of them rip to you guys and rancho pd has been pullin over teens all day while they could have been lookin for tha killer rip jamir,richard, and rob my heart goes out to all the familes

  • Cisco

    Robert Corpos….was my older brother R.I.P He left behind his 1 year old son my nephew and everyone in our family-Cisco

  • Taking Responsibility

    Again unless the gangs start randomly shooting people I don;t think me and mine will have need to be concerned. The sympathy I have is that these parents could not save there kids before it came to this.

  • Tyrone

    Nobody has to say anything for us to know that this crime involves gangs. Carrying gun’s wouldn’t have protected this from happening, but
    I know if I lived on this street I would definitely carry a gun to protect my life
    and property. And the property and lives of others if need be. How about an Armed neighborhood watch? The toughest gang in town would now become the armed housewives of Rancho Cordova. Nobody want’s to be the one to
    mess with that. Oh, and if they did by some chance happen to be illegals or there were illegals involved then I would have absolutely no problem at all with saying so.

  • NO NAME

    THE COPS NEED TO GO LOOK FOR SHREK

  • laura d

    I remember watching this the other night and @ 10pm parents were still showing up on scene wondering if it were their kids. Really? How do u not know where ur children are especially at 10 o’clock at night. Smh. Either way, very sad story when children can’t ride their bikes anymore without coward ass punks taking their lives.

  • theresa

    up the reward those little gangsters or killers make amore then that in a day..i bet..are you serious all the rich people in the sourning areas of rancho cordova there is not one rich man or woman that can throw in a large reward to stop this child killer from doing it again…wow what a discrace..can i get a loan from a loan shark to at least track the car down they used and a good cop to do the rest…jesus christ what tight m fers

  • Tex

    Quit the bickering and complaining. Justice will not be served when the culprits are arrested. The justice system since the late 1970′s has convicted felons and later set them free after serving 20 years or less. You figure that a human life as since my our judicial system, is only worth a couple of years in a detention facility. Thanks to the ACLU; and other organizations that defend the rights of murderers; rapists; and other felons who are convicted and later set free, the safety of loved ones are once again placed in danger by these predators. We the Sons of Justice, believe that justice should be served. Citizens should have the right to see the murderers who deliberately took the lives of their loved ones be executed, live for live, no exemptions.

  • unknown person

    so sad i knew these people i cant beleive some! would do this and if you did it please take responsability and turn yourself in please

  • yana

    umm okay laura d that could have been anyone ! this wasnt planned out !!! it just happen and the damn cops didnt give any imformation out so the parents didnt know who it was but you wouldnt know because you dont have to go through this we do !
    r.i.parada bubba , jamir and rob !

  • Jeana

    forreal how can you say that these boys did not deserve to die they were very young and had a whole life ahead of them one of them had a kid and now that poor lil boy has to grow up with out a father and he will wonder everyday of his life why did these people take my daddy! you have got no heart and i 100% disagree with you ! those boys familys have to wake up everyday not being able to see there (dad brother son etc) and all they wanna do is hug even see there face again and there is alot of people who wants to take there place even i do so before you wanna be negative you need to chech your facts .

  • Neecy

    I agree with Jeana. If you have nothing nice to say, don’t say it at all. You don’t know the situation, or why it happened besides whatever the news told you. Therefore you need to watch yourself. No matter what anybody does nobody deserves to get shot and die and it be ok. Your wrong. These kids had a long life ahead of them and lost it all cause of stupid people who want to shoot people and run. Pathetic. Rest in Peace Jamir Miller, Richard Ward and Robert Corpos. May you rest in Peace. My condolences are with there familys.

  • Neecy

    Exactly, What do you mean “Hpe do u not know where ur children are especially at 10 o’clock at night?” Those 3 boys were popular at Cordova. You seen the crowd. Oviously the kids that didnt go home stayed around and spent time with there friends for the last time. Rest in Peace Jamir, Bubba, Rob..

  • JAMIE

    Get your facts straight. The shooting is considered gang related because the SHOOTER is a vLIDATED GANG MEMBER………………………OOPS NOT AS SMART AS U THOUGHT U WERE
