New details released Tuesday on the deadly ambush attack of a UPS driver in Irvine revealed he was allegedly stalked and killed by a childhood friend.

The shooting happened on May 16 as the victim, Expedito Cuesta De Leon, 50, from Aliso Viejo, had been sitting in his delivery van after dropping off a package at around 3 p.m.

Suddenly, a masked gunman pulled up to De Leon’s van and shot him 14 times in a matter of 19 seconds, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office. Irvine police responded to the area near Chrysler and Bendix Streets where De Leon was found with his seatbelt on in his delivery truck. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The suspect, Rhean Jalipa Fontanoza, 46, sped away from the area. He was located about an hour later and was eventually arrested after a standoff with a SWAT team. New details revealed the two men, who were both UPS employees, knew each other and were childhood friends.
