Upon arrival, deputies discovered a four-door passenger car had struck the rear of a residence.
No one inside the home was injured but Guzman was the sole occupant of the vehicle with a fatal gunshot wound.
“This sentence reflects the seriousness of the crime and serves as a reminder that violence in our community will not be tolerated,” Prosecutor Loren Delp said. “While this case involved a defendant who was just 15 years old, the tragic loss of Guzman’s life cannot be overlooked.”
