Claudia Gonzalez, a 30-year-old Latina, was shot and killed on March 16, 2018, in the Florence neighborhood of South Los Angeles. Around 8:30 p.m. she was sitting on a bus stop bench on the 8300 block of South Broadway waiting to go home when a man exited a van, approached her, and shot her. She was pronounced dead at the scene at 8:48 p.m., according to coroner records.

Investigators learned Gonzalez had earlier visited a man with whom she had a child. That man, identified as 26-year-old Latino Larry Sierra, allegedly refused to let Gonzalez see their child, and she left his residence prior to the shooting. Sierra has been identified as a suspect and was charged with one count of murder; an arraignment was scheduled for May 1, 2018. The case raised questions about domestic conflict and its fatal consequences.

Did anyone in the Florence or South Broadway area see the van or the shooter that evening, or have information about Gonzalez’s movements that night?
