Gurpreet Singh, 44, co-owner of ASL Liquor and Market in Downey, California, was shot and killed at the store in the 8500 block of Paramount Boulevard on May 7, 2019. Officers found him behind the counter about 10:15 p.m. with gunshot wounds; he later died despite attempts to save him. Police initially believed the shooting was the result of an attempted robbery, though other motives were not ruled out.

Surveillance footage produced tips that led investigators to a Maywood residence and, on May 10, to a man believed to be the shooter getting into a car. A high-speed pursuit followed; the suspect, identified as 24-year-old Dylan Andres Lindsey, reportedly fired multiple rounds at pursuing officers from a large-caliber revolver, striking at least two patrol cars and grazing a bystander. The chase ended in Vernon, where Lindsey was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound and taken into custody in critical condition. He was charged with Singh’s murder and related counts; Lindsey died of his wound on May 16, 2019. Alison Hart, the vehicle’s driver, was arrested and charged with evading a peace officer and being an accessory after the fact after treatment for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound.

Singh was remembered as a family man and a U.S. Navy Reserve officer, survived by his wife and two sons. The motive for the killing remained under investigation; does anyone have information about Singh, his business, or the events that night?
