Investigators believe that Castrejon slept in the cemetery because he was homeless, according to police.

The cemetery is more than 150 years old and holds the remains of a number of early settlers, according to the city officials.

Anyone with information about the crime is asked to call Det. Marco Granado at (909) 953-4675.
