Kenia Buckner was 26 when she was shot and killed in her Bellflower apartment on Cornuta Avenue on January 16, 2017. Her ex-boyfriend, 27-year-old Antowan Parker, walked into the apartment and fired several shots in front of their three children, striking Buckner in the upper torso; she was pronounced dead at the scene. The children were unharmed and ran into the street seeking help after the shooting.

Parker fled on foot and a warrant for his arrest was issued; a reward was offered for information leading to his capture. He was arrested on April 14, 2017, in Downey and charged with one count of murder and two counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm. Parker pleaded not guilty and was held on $4.15 million bail. Eyewitness testimony from family members who were present was central to the case and the community was left reeling by the violence.

Did anyone in the Bellflower area have contact with Kenia or her family around January 2017 who could shed light on what happened?
