Michael McGarry was 26 and a father when he was fatally shot on November 15, 2020 while working his first shift as a tow truck driver in downtown Los Angeles. He and a partner were assisting a stranded motorist near Enterprise and Mateo streets, in the vicinity of the Fashion District, when assailants attempted a robbery and McGarry was shot in the neck.

The Los Angeles Police Department has video of the incident, but investigators say the recording’s quality has complicated identification of suspects. The Los Angeles City Council reinstated a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction; the reward was first approved in February 2021 and has been extended several times. McGarry’s mother, Yvette Charpentier, has made public appeals as the family seeks answers for McGarry’s young son and for closure.

Anyone who was near Enterprise and Mateo streets on November 15, 2020 or who has information about the shooting is asked to contact the LAPD.
