Jamar Clarence Marshall, 41, was shot and killed near the 700 block of South Alameda Street in Downtown Los Angeles on March 22, 2021. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s records list the cause of death as a gunshot, and the shooting happened in the early hours of the morning. Witnesses reported hearing multiple shots and seeing a vehicle speed away from the scene.

The LAPD characterized the incident as a targeted shooting and canvassed the area for evidence and witnesses. Surveillance footage from nearby businesses captured a dark-colored sedan leaving the area shortly after the shooting and became an important part of the investigation. Initial inquiries produced few immediate leads.
