Christopher Cristian Islas, a 21-year-old Latino, was shot and killed on November 13, 2015, in the Broadway-Manchester neighborhood of Los Angeles. The shooting occurred about 11:35 p.m. after a dispute at a party being held in a barbershop. Islas left the barbershop with a group and was walking south on South Broadway when a gunman chased the group and opened fire. Islas was struck and pronounced dead at the scene at 11:50 p.m.

The gunman escaped on foot and the Los Angeles Police Department’s Criminal Gang Homicide Division handled the investigation. Detectives reported difficulty identifying the shooter because witnesses were reluctant to provide information; no arrests had been made. The community held vigils and memorials for Islas, and police asked anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers for anonymous tips.

Does anyone who was in the Broadway-Manchester area that night or who knew Christopher have information that could help investigators?
