Mr. Gutierrez was treated at the scene for his gunshot wound and taken to the hospital, where he died on Dec. 20.

“One group involved in the altercation has been identified as local Santa Barbara area residents with ties to a local Santa Barbara street gang,” police said. “The opposing group in the altercation has been identified as Ventura County residents with ties to Ventura County street gangs.” Prosecutors allege the adult defendants were driving on the wharf when they spotted the

Ventura County juveniles and confronted them, dispatching two of their group to attack them with a gun.

The four Santa Barbara defendants have pleaded not guilty. They are scheduled to return to court April 6 to set a date for a preliminary hearing.

The juveniles were arrested by
