Ruben Antonio Martinez Reyes, a 27-year-old Latino, was shot multiple times and killed on September 14, 2017, in an alley behind the 9600 block of Kalmia Street in the Florence-Firestone neighborhood of South Los Angeles. The shooting happened around 10:45 p.m.; he was pronounced dead at the scene at 11:02 p.m. The Los Angeles County coroner listed cause of death as multiple gunshot wounds.

Investigators have not identified suspects or a clear motive, and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has asked the public for information, directing tips to the Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau or Crime Stoppers. A fundraising page was set up to support Martinez Reyes’ family, which includes his 12-year-old son.

What information can anyone share about that night or activity around Kalmia Street that might help bring answers for Ruben’s family?
