Paul Sepulveda Garibaldi was 41 when he was shot and killed on September 12, 2018, in the Harvard Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. The shooting occurred around 8 p.m. while Garibaldi and another man were walking in an alley on the 5900 block of South Denker Avenue. A light-colored sedan pulled up, a person exited the backseat and opened fire. Garibaldi was struck and taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 10:33 p.m.; the other man survived.

The Los Angeles Police Department, which overheard the shooting, pursued the fleeing vehicle and arrested 36-year-old Marlon Miller, identified as the shooter. Miller was charged with one count of murder and one count of attempted murder, with additional gun and gang allegations; investigators noted Garibaldi was not a gang member. The vehicle’s driver escaped initially but was later identified; two days after the shooting police served a search warrant at the driver’s home and the driver fatally shot himself during that event.

Anyone who saw the shooting in the alley on South Denker Avenue or has information about the suspects is asked to come forward.
