Angel Domingo Gaspar Gallegos was 12 when he was struck and killed by a stray bullet on November 25, 2021, while playing in his family’s backyard in the Skyline neighborhood of San Diego. The shooting happened around 9:30 p.m. during a Thanksgiving gathering; Angel was outside with about ten cousins and was hit in the back. Family members tried to save him but he died of his injuries.

The San Diego County District Attorney, Summer Stephan, and local groups including Mothers With a Message have canvassed the area seeking leads. The community has held vigils and memorials while the family continues to press for justice.

If anyone was in the Skyline neighborhood that night or has information that could help identify where the shot came from, please come forward.
