Dina Rebecca Enriquez, a 24-year-old Latina, was shot and killed on March 10, 2017, in the Adams-Normandie neighborhood of Los Angeles. The shooting occurred in the 3100 block of Kenwood Avenue; the Los Angeles County coroner’s records indicate she was shot in her apartment and was pronounced dead at the scene shortly after 3:30 p.m.

The killing reportedly followed an argument with her longtime partner, Steven Alexis Vargas, who then pulled out a gun and shot her in the bedroom while the couple’s two young children, ages 2 and 6, were present in the apartment. Vargas, 26, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder. On March 14, 2017, the Los Angeles County District Attorney charged him with one count of murder, two counts of child abuse, one count of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, and one count of discharge of a firearm with gross negligence; an arraignment was scheduled for April 12, 2017.

The Los Angeles Police Department’s Criminal Gang Homicide Division handled the investigation; authorities asked anyone with information to contact investigators or Crime Stoppers. Did anyone in the Adams-Normandie area see or hear anything that afternoon that could help the investigation?
