Jose Ricardo Sahagun, 44, of Norwalk, California, was killed on April 29, 2017, during a random shooting spree that moved through Whittier, Pico Rivera and La Mirada. Sahagun was fatally shot multiple times while sitting in his car at a traffic light in La Mirada and later died at a hospital. The spree began about 1 p.m.; the shooters first fired at a pedestrian in South Whittier, then carjacked a green SUV in Pico Rivera and continued shooting at multiple locations.

Authorities say the shooters were Alejandro Lazo, 21, and Reyna Gomez, 26, both of Whittier, who described themselves as gang members. They were arrested and charged with one count of murder, 14 counts of attempted murder and one count of carjacking; Gomez also faced a torture charge for shooting a man in the groin. Both suspects were held in custody while recovering from injuries sustained during their arrest.

The attack was described as unprovoked and random; investigators reported the pair had prior criminal activity and gang affiliation and were exploring whether other suspects or related incidents existed. Does anyone have information about Jose Sahagun, his last movements that day, or witnesses to the shootings?
