Three additional suspects were arrested in connection with a shooting at a Long Beach liquor store that left two men dead and two others wounded, police said Thursday.

Savanna Sok, 30, and Kelly Reyes, 23, both of Long Beach; and Leonardo Lim, 21, of La Puente, were arrested shortly after 6 p.m. Wednesday, according to the Long Beach Police Department.

Three other people were arrested last month in connection with the crime, which occurred about 9:30 p.m. Oct. 10 at the store at Anaheim Street and Walnut Avenue, police said.

The crime apparently involved a dispute inside the business that escalated into a shooting, police said. Danny Bunthung, 21, and Dallas Som, 22, both of Long Beach, were killed and two other men were wounded.

On Oct. 31, police released Sok’s photo and sought public help to find him.

On Wednesday, he was seen in a vehicle near Elm Avenue and 61st Street, and police pulled it over and arrested him after a brief foot chase.

“A firearm located in Sok’s waistband was recovered,” according to police.

Reyes and Lim were in the vehicle with Sok and were arrested, police said.

Sok was booked on a warrant accusing him of murder and attempted murder, and was being held without bail.

Reyes was booked on an accessory-to-murder warrant, and she was being held on $1 million bail. Police would not confirm if Reyes is Sok’s girlfriend, although they said last month Sok’s girlfriend was being sought in connection with the crime.

Lim was booked on suspicion of “accessory to murder,” and was also being held on $1 million bail.

On Oct. 26, Morris Om, 30, of Long Beach, was arrested in connection with the shooting. Police subsequently searched a residence in Long Beach and arrested 27-year-old Tiffany Som, who is not related to victim Dallas Som. She was booked on suspicion of being an accessory to murder.

Also arrested that day in San Bernardino County was Brenda Sok, 24, of Redlands, who is Savanna Sok’s sister. She was booked on suspicion of being an accessory to murder.

Om and Savanna Sok were already charged with murder and attempted murder. Tiffany Som was charged with being an accessory to murder and was held on $1.4 million bail. Brenda Sok was also charged with being an accessory to murder and was held on $1 million bail. Om, Som and Brenda Sok are scheduled to be arraigned Dec. 20. An arraignment date has not been set for Savanna Sok.
