Denzel Wesley Jones, 22, was killed in the Willowbrook area of South Los Angeles on July 29, 2018. He was standing outside a friend’s home on the 11900 block of South Willowbrook Avenue, talking with a small group of friends shortly before 1 a.m., when an unidentified man approached and began firing. Jones was struck multiple times and pronounced dead at the scene at 1:02 a.m.; the official cause of death was multiple gunshot wounds.

A Latina woman in the group suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the cheek. Witnesses described the shooter as a Black male in his 20s who fled south on foot. Investigators say Jones was not affiliated with any gang activity and had just finished work before the shooting. No arrests have been announced and the motive remains unknown.

Did anyone in the community see that man fleeing south from South Willowbrook Avenue that night or have information that could help investigators?
