Alexander Salazar, 21, of Azusa, California, was shot dead in the early morning hours of January 22, 2017. Officers found him around 1:20 a.m. inside a Lexus sedan that had crashed into a parked pickup truck in an alley in the 600 block of North Dalton Avenue, just north of Sixth Street. He had suffered a gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene. A 20-year-old man who was also in the vehicle survived and was treated at a local hospital.

Salazar was known to law enforcement as a gang member, though it is unclear whether gang activity was a factor in the killing. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department handled the investigation with assistance from Azusa homicide detectives. No suspect descriptions were available immediately after the shooting, and there have been no significant public updates about arrests or suspects.

Who in the Azusa area may have information about that night or the events leading up to the crash and shooting?
