Elian Lopez was 16 and lived in Indio, California when he was fatally shot on March 24, 2017. The shooting happened about 11:48 p.m. in the courtyard of the Cielo Vista Apartments on Shadow Palm Avenue.

Lopez was a student at Indio High School; grief counseling was offered there after his death and a makeshift memorial was placed at the apartment courtyard. Investigators have been asking the public for help identifying the shooter and the motive. As of the latest updates, no suspects have been identified and the murder weapon has not been recovered.

Did anyone in the area see or hear anything that night that could help investigators?
