Michael Patrick McHugh, an 83-year-old Temple City resident, was found fatally shot inside his Halifax Road home on April 24, 2020. Deputies who responded shortly after 3 p.m. discovered McHugh with a gunshot wound to his upper torso, and the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner ruled the death at the scene.

The investigation quickly identified McHugh’s son, 52-year-old John Daniel McHugh, as the primary suspect. He was arrested at the scene, a firearm believed to be the weapon was recovered, and John McHugh was booked on suspicion of murder and held in lieu of $2.03 million bail. Charging documents allege an argument between John and his father escalated to the shooting; an arraignment was scheduled for April 28, 2020, then continued to May 27, 2020.
