HEMET, Calif. (AP) — Police have issued a murder arrest warrant for one of two missing Southern California teens and believe charred human remains found in his backyard belong to the other youth.

Hemet police Capt. Tony Margis said Friday that police are seeking Jose Campos and arrested his parents, Jose and Maria Seym late Thursday.

Police have also issued arrest warrants for Campos' girlfriend, 17-year-old Felicia Sharp, and a 21-year-old man named Rene Lopez Fregozo.

Police believe charred remains found last month in a firepit behind Campos' house are those of 17-year-old Adrian Rios, and that he was shot before being burned.

Margis says police have not determined a motive or recovered the murder weapon.
