Willie Lee Williams, 65, was shot and killed on October 14, 2017, in the Vermont Vista neighborhood of South Los Angeles. Deputies were called to the 11000 block of South Vermont Avenue about 6:20 p.m. and found Williams on the sidewalk with gunshot wounds to his lower torso and left arm. He was taken to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead at 7:41 p.m.

Investigators established that Williams lived in another part of Los Angeles but had no immediate information about his activities before the shooting. At the time, there were no suspects, no clear motive, and no witnesses had come forward, which authorities said made reconstructing the incident difficult. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Homicide Bureau asked the public to contact them or Crime Stoppers with any information.

Does anyone who lived in or near Vermont Vista on October 14, 2017, remember seeing or hearing anything that could help this investigation?
