Marvin Charles Watkins, 57, was shot and killed outside his home in Pomona’s Phillips Ranch neighborhood on March 23, 2020. Watkins had been working as an Uber and Lyft driver that day and was returning home when a vehicle pulled up and an occupant opened fire, striking him multiple times. Family members inside the house found him on the sidewalk; despite police and paramedics responding, he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Watkins was a former music executive credited with helping develop careers of artists such as Snoop Dogg and DJ Quik, and his death prompted public mourning from the community and figures in the music industry. The Pomona Police Department has not identified suspects or a motive; investigators have explored a range of possibilities, including potential gang connections or past industry disputes, but no concrete leads or witness descriptions have been reported.

No arrests have been announced. Does anyone have information about that night or about a vehicle seen in the Phillips Ranch area on March 23, 2020?
