Herbert Lee Boyd, 33, was fatally shot on October 7, 2017, in the Historic South-Central neighborhood of Los Angeles. Coroner records list gunshot wounds as the cause of death; reports say he was shot multiple times that Saturday.

The Los Angeles Police Department opened an investigation but faced obstacles including few eyewitnesses and limited physical evidence at the scene. There were no immediate arrests or publicly identified suspects, and investigators appealed to the community for tips.

Anyone who knew Herbert Boyd or who may have information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
