Homicide detectives believe Castro had forced his way inside the trailer, and the owner told him to leave.
Sheriff's officials say Castro was a threat, and the owner shot him in self-defense.
Castro died from his injuries.
No charges have been filed against the trailer's owner.
Officials say the investigation is still ongoing and urge anyone with information to contact the sheriff's office.
