Francisco Cebrero, a 58-year-old Latino man, was shot and killed on November 1, 2020, in Canoga Park, Los Angeles. He was found in an alley near Independence Avenue and Saticoy Street at about 9:15 p.m.; the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s records list him as pronounced dead at the scene at 9:25 p.m. A passerby discovered him and called police.

The LAPD Valley Bureau Homicide section opened an investigation and appealed for public help. Cebrero’s family organized an online fundraiser to cover funeral costs; they and the local community continue to mourn his loss.

Does anyone who was in the Independence and Saticoy area that evening remember seeing anything or anyone who might help investigators?
