Elias Adame Jr., a 45-year-old Latino, was fatally shot on October 5, 2016, in Wilmington, Los Angeles. The Los Angeles County Coroner’s records place the shooting around 12:30 a.m. in the 1100 block of East Young Street. Adame had been visiting a friend’s house and was outside when the friend briefly went indoors to use the restroom; during that interval Adame was shot. He was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Witnesses reported hearing a vehicle speeding away from the scene, but it is unclear whether the shooter fired from inside the vehicle or exited it. The Los Angeles Police Department’s Harbor Division investigated the case; as of the latest available update no arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced and investigators asked the community to share tips, including anonymous Crime Stoppers reports.

If anyone who was in Wilmington that night or who knew Elias Adame Jr. has information that could help identify the shooter, please come forward to the LAPD Harbor Division or submit an anonymous tip.
