Hye Soon Oh, a 67-year-old Glendale resident, was shot to death on the evening of August 8, 2017. She was found near the garage area of an apartment complex in the 2900 block of Montrose Avenue after officers responded to reports of gunfire. Oh had just returned from her place of business in Lynwood and parked about 8:40 p.m.; police say a suspect followed her into the garage area, robbed her of personal property and then shot her. She was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 9:40 p.m.

Investigators concluded the attack was not random but a targeted robbery carried out in a confined area away from public view. Forensic evidence led detectives to identify 20-year-old Devon White, described as a documented gang member from Lynwood and a convicted felon on formal probation. White was arrested in Los Angeles shortly after the killing and, on August 22, 2017, was charged by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office with murder, robbery, being a felon in possession of a firearm, and a special gang enhancement alleging the crimes benefited a criminal street gang. The investigation was continuing to determine whether any other suspects were involved.

Did anyone in the area see or hear anything the night of August 8 that could help piece together what happened?
