Vincent Richard Lanzi, a 38-year-old resident of West Sacramento, California, was shot on October 26, 2021 and later died at a hospital. Officers found him unresponsive on the 2100 block of Orchard Way with multiple gunshot wounds; the Yolo County Coroner’s Office confirmed his identity.

The investigation led to the arrest of 27-year-old Ernesto Gonzalez the morning after the shooting. Gonzalez was booked into Yolo County Jail on multiple felony counts including murder, attempted murder, assault with a semiautomatic firearm, discharge of a firearm at an occupied vehicle, and possession of a firearm and ammunition by a person previously convicted of a felony. He was arraigned in Yolo Superior Court on October 29, 2021, and a pre-hearing conference was set for November 15, 2021.

Lanzi’s family and friends remembered him fondly and the community reacted with shock. Does anyone have information about Lanzi’s activities in West Sacramento around late October 2021 or saw anything on Orchard Way that morning?
