Joseph Waary was 18 when he was shot and killed on January 24, 2020, inside a marijuana dispensary in the 9800 block of De Soto Avenue in Chatsworth. The Medical Examiner‑Coroner’s records list him as having been shot around 11:26 a.m.; people with him rushed him to a hospital and he was pronounced dead at 11:30 a.m.

The suspect was identified as 19‑year‑old Jeffrey Ivan Bustamante Jr., described as Latino. Bustamante was charged with one count of involuntary manslaughter and two counts of possession of a firearm with a prior misdemeanor conviction, with an allegation he used a semiautomatic handgun. He pleaded not guilty and had a court appearance scheduled for March 4, 2020. The LAPD asked the public to contact detectives or Crime Stoppers with information.

What does anyone who was in or near that dispensary that morning remember seeing or hearing?
