Ivan Lee Harge, 54, was fatally shot inside his Westmont, California, home on the evening of June 19, 2019. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner‑Coroner ruled the death a gunshot homicide; Harge was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators say the suspect was Harge’s nephew, 34‑year‑old Tyree Dubois Jones. Jones allegedly began the night by shooting his mother twice with a shotgun at her home, then went to Harge’s residence and fatally shot his uncle. Jones is reported to have also assaulted his grandmother, causing serious head trauma; both women were hospitalized. Jones was arrested at the scene and charged by the Los Angeles County District Attorney with one count of murder and two counts of attempted murder, with prosecutors seeking sentencing enhancements including for committing the crimes while out on bail.

The case drew attention because the alleged violence was directed at multiple family members in one evening. Does anyone have information about the victims’ lives or the neighborhood around Westmont in 2019 that could help fill gaps in this timeline?
