Dametrius Hakeem Thomas, 25, of Knoxville, Tennessee, was fatally shot on October 6, 2018, in the South Los Angeles neighborhood of Westmont, near Denker Avenue and West 102nd Street. Coroner’s records say he was dropped off at a Los Angeles County fire station at West 108th Street and Normandie Avenue at 10:16 p.m. with a gunshot wound to his torso, then taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 11:17 p.m.; cause of death was a gunshot wound to the abdomen.

Investigators have not been able to reconstruct what led to the shooting. The people who brought Thomas to the fire station did not identify themselves or explain what happened, and authorities have been unable to determine why he was in Los Angeles or how long he had been in the area. There have been no arrests or identified suspects, and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has asked the public for help.

Does anyone have information about Thomas’s movements in Los Angeles on or before October 6, 2018, or know who might have brought him to the fire station?
