A 21-year-old man was indicted by an O'ahu grand jury today on a murder charge in the May 19 shooting death of a North Shore man.

Dustin Jimenez also was indicted on related firearm and other charges.

Jimenez is accused of killing Dillon Ching, 30, who was shot twice in the back late May 19 outside his family's Sunset Beach home as he was trying to break up a fight between two groups of people.

He was pronounced dead early the next morning at the Waihawa General Hospital emergency room.

The murder charge carries a mandatory life term with possibility of parole.

Jimenez, of Ohai Place in Wahiawa, also was charged with three firearm counts, first-degree terroristic threatening and first-degree reckless endangering.
