Cristian Flores Padilla, 25, was shot and killed on the night of October 14–15, 2022 in Compton. He was walking north on Willowbrook Avenue toward El Segundo Boulevard after leaving a family gathering when he encountered a group of six people — three men and three women. Two of the men broke from the group; one shot Cristian multiple times while the other stood lookout. The two rejoined the group and all fled. Cristian was pronounced dead at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has classified the death as a homicide and investigators have reviewed nearby surveillance footage. Cristian’s family, who describe him as a loving son and uncle not involved in gang activity or drugs, has held press conferences and urged the community to come forward. No arrests have been announced and the suspects remain at large.

Does anyone who was in that area that night remember seeing a group matching that description or have information that could help identify the suspects?
