Detectives say the shooting was gang-related and Ramirez-Miranda was an innocent victim caught in the crossfire.
During the arrests, officers recovered multiple firearms and served search warrants in the cities of Long Beach, Huntington Beach, Lakewood, and Los Angeles.
Detectives believe the suspects fired shots at people they believed to be rival gang members.
"Gun violence is not tolerated in our city," said Long Beach Mayor Rex Richardson. "As a City, we are committed to disrupting this cycle of gang-related violence and to keeping everyone safe."
Homicide detectives believe there were additional people in the area at the time of the shooting. Anyone with information is urged to contact the LBPD at 562.570.7244 or submit an anonymous tip through LACrimeStoppers.org.
