Bond set at $1.3 million in aggravated murder case

YOUNGSTOWN — The man accused in the shooting death of 25-year-old Ricardo P. Moctezuma appeared in municipal court today to be arraigned on charges of aggravated murder and three counts of felonious assault. Judge Elizabeth A. Kobly set bond at $1.375 million for Jason Delgado, 25, of Pasadena Avenue. He will be back in court July 31 for a preliminary hearing. Delgado’s attorney, Thomas E. Zena, told the judge that his client speaks no English and had a Spanish-speaking attorney, Miriam Ocasio, translate the proceeding. Delgado contacted Zena Monday evening and then turned himself into Detective Sgt. Ron Rodway. Moctezuma, of Burlington Street, was shot outside the El Tropical bar on Poland Avenue around 1:50 a.m. Saturday after a fight inside the business. The others injured, two of whom are bar employees, survived. Two were wounded by gunfire, one was cut with a beer bottle, the assistant prosecutor said.
