Montreal Lavonte Brown, 45, of Los Angeles was shot and killed on November 20, 2017, around 9:45 p.m. He was standing in front of a home in the 400 block of West 109th Place in the Vermont Vista neighborhood when a vehicle drove by and an occupant opened fire. Two other people were wounded, including a 2-year-old girl who was grazed by a bullet. Brown was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 10:29 p.m.; the coroner listed the cause of death as a gunshot wound.

The Los Angeles Police Department led the investigation, working to identify the vehicle and occupants and asking the public for help. Brown had a prior conviction tied to gang activity, a detail police considered while exploring possible motives and connections.

Does anyone who lived in Vermont Vista that night remember seeing a suspicious vehicle on West 109th Place or have other information that could help investigators?
