A former South Lake Tahoe resident was arrested on suspicion of murder last month at Patton State Hospital in San Bernardino after police say he fatally beat a fellow inmate.
George Aaron Carver, 40, who had been serving a criminal commitment at the mental hospital since 2011, was booked into the West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga on Aug. 31, jail records show.
The name of the victim, who has been at the hospital for 17 years, was being withheld until his family could be notified, San Bernardino police said.
