Lloyd Dean Thomas, a 40-year-old resident of Los Angeles, was fatally shot on the evening of October 11, 2021, near 6625 4th Ave. in the Hyde Park neighborhood. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner recorded his death as a homicide; he was shot multiple times and pronounced dead at the scene.

The LAPD opened an investigation and identified several persons of interest and interviewed witnesses and Thomas’s associates. Early lines of inquiry included a possible personal dispute or gang-related activity, but no concrete evidence supporting those theories was reported. No arrest was made immediately after the shooting, and investigators said progress was hindered by a lack of clear leads and limited witness cooperation. A reward was offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

Does anyone who knew Lloyd or who was in the Hyde Park area that evening have information that could help the investigation?
