Roderick Thomas, 54, was shot while working as a Postmates driver in Los Angeles on December 15, 2020. According to the Los Angeles Police Department, Thomas had just completed a delivery in the Cypress Park neighborhood near the 1400 block of Randall Court when an unknown assailant or assailants opened fire and struck him in the neck. Despite his wound, Thomas drove to Avenue 26 and Figueroa Boulevard, called 911 and waited for responders; he was taken to a hospital and died three days later.

No arrests have been announced and the investigation remains open. Thomas’s family has issued public appeals for information, and the LAPD has asked anyone with knowledge to come forward. What details might someone in the Cypress Park area remember from that night that could help the investigation?
