“A Long Beach man whose female accomplice might have been pregnant when she was fatally shot by the owner of a home they broke into was arrested on suspicion of murder in the woman’s death, police said. In California a person can be charged with their accomplice’s death if it occurs during the commission of a crime. Police say Adams and Miller attacked Greer, 80, after he walked in on them burglarizing his home in the 3900 block of Country Club Drive in the upscale Bixby Knolls neighborhood Tuesday night. But when Greer produced a .22-caliber handgun, they fled. Greer told KNBC he chased the pair and shot Miller twice in the back in the alley, then pulled her body back onto his lot.”
