Carlos Ignacio Zaragoza, 56, was shot and killed at an apartment in Canoga Park in the early hours of July 25, 2019. The shooting was carried out by his son, 26-year-old Gerry Dean Zaragoza, who also killed his brother, Carlos Pierre Zaragoza, and wounded his mother with a gunshot to the hand during the initial attack on the family.

Gerry Zaragoza’s violence continued across the San Fernando Valley that day. He killed a former girlfriend, Azucena Lepe-Ayala, seriously wounded a man at a Shell gas station, attempted a robbery outside a Bank of America in Canoga Park, and fatally shot Detwonia Harris on an Orange Line bus in Van Nuys; police said the bus shooting appeared random. A manhunt ended the same day when officers spotted Gerry Zaragoza walking on Canoga Avenue near Gault Street, resisted orders to surrender, and were forced to use a Taser to take him into custody.

He was charged with multiple counts including four counts of murder, two counts of attempted murder, and one count of attempted robbery, with special circumstances allegations. If anyone knew Carlos Ignacio Zaragoza or has information about the events of July 25, 2019, please share what you know.
