VICTORVILLE — An Adelanto man who pleaded no contest to involuntary manslaughter in December for accidentally shooting and killing his 7-year-old son was in court earlier this month after being sentenced to 270 days in county jail, court records show.

Julio Cervantes Sr. had a probation hearing Feb. 5, three weeks after his sentencing that included 48 months probation, according to court records. Cervantes received a conduct credit that could cut his jail sentence in half.

Cervantes — who was 40 at the time of his arraignment — was arrested in June, about 12 hours after first responders arrived at his home in the 18000 block of Bellflower Street for reports of an accidental shooting.

Daniel Cervantes, 7, was shot just before 5 p.m. June 11 and transported to Victor Valley Global Medical Center where he later died, according to San Bernardino County Sheriff’s officials at the time.

Eyewitnesses told reporters they saw someone, possibly a family member, carry an injured boy out of the home and into a waiting ambulance, according to a previous Daily Press report.

Julio Cervantes Sr. must complete 100 hours of community service once his jail sentence is finished, court records show.
