Jorge Coria, a 42-year-old resident of Oxnard, California, was found fatally shot in the early hours of May 19, 2017, in the 2700 block of El Dorado Avenue. Officers responded after multiple 911 calls reporting gunshots; Coria was discovered with gunshot wounds and pronounced dead at the scene. His death was the third homicide in Oxnard that week, following the killings of Aaron Austin on May 16 and Eduardo Viveros on May 17.

Police said Coria had known affiliations with a local gang, and investigators did not rule out gang involvement, but they concluded his murder did not appear to be connected to the other two recent homicides. The Oxnard Police Department increased staffing and formed a special task force with assistance from other agencies, including the FBI and the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office. No arrests have been announced and the investigation remains ongoing.

If anyone knew Jorge, his routines, or saw activity in the 2700 block of El Dorado Avenue around May 19, 2017, please come forward with information.
