Mi Kyung Khang, 51, was shot and killed on the evening of October 8, 2020, near 837 S. Catalina Street in Koreatown, Los Angeles. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner recorded her death as a gunshot fatality, and she died shortly after the shooting.

LAPD West Bureau Homicide detectives treated the incident as a targeted shooting. Investigators canvassed the area, reviewed nearby surveillance footage and interviewed potential witnesses, but the case was hampered by a lack of immediate witnesses and a clear motive. A suspect was identified during the inquiry, though the identity was not publicly released as the investigation continued.

The investigation remained active in the months after the killing as detectives pursued forensic leads and witness cooperation. Does anyone in Koreatown have information or saw anything on the night of October 8, 2020, that could help the investigation?
