Los Angeles man accused of killing woman, blaming it on suicide

Around 1:40 am Wednesday police and paramedics found 24-year-old Alondra Flores dead near the area of ​​Oxnard Street and Ranchito Avenue in the Valley Glen neighborhood of the San Fernando Valley.

Police had responded to the area after receiving a 911 call reporting that the woman had shot herself, but when investigators arrived on scene, they determined her injuries were not consistent with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Vintch was booked into the Van Nuys Jail where he is being held without bail while he awaits charges for murder.
