Hassan Hart was 15 and a Rialto resident when he was fatally shot on February 4, 2017. He was found with a gunshot wound while sitting in the passenger seat of a car; the shooting was first reported in the 400 block of West Rialto Avenue but detectives later concluded it happened in the 600 block of North Willow Avenue. The driver sought help near Cactus and Rialto Avenue and Hassan was pronounced dead at 2:10 p.m. at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton.

Hassan had been a freshman at Eisenhower High School until the previous October and had planned to return. Rialto police initially could not say whether he had been the intended target. In late March 2017, police arrested 21-year-old Fernando Palomera of Rialto on charges including murder, attempted murder, and shooting at a person from a vehicle; he pleaded not guilty and was held on $2 million bail. Investigators continued to seek help from the public as they pieced together what happened.

If anyone has information about Hassan, the shooting, or the events that day, please come forward.
