Allen Gomez, 26, was shot on September 27, 2016, in the 1100 block of East 22nd Street in Historic South-Central Los Angeles and died two days later on September 29, 2016. Coroner records state he was shot multiple times; police said the shooting occurred shortly before 9:30 p.m. after neighbors reported gunfire. Gomez was found lying in the street and taken to a hospital in critical condition.

The Newton Division of the Los Angeles Police Department led the investigation. Detectives said the shooter or shooters fled on foot and that the case has been hampered by a lack of witnesses willing to come forward; police described the shooting as likely gang-related. No arrests were announced at the time and detectives asked anyone with information to contact the Newton Division or Crime Stoppers.

Family and friends remembered Gomez as a beloved son, brother, and friend, and the community held vigils and memorials. Does anyone who knew Allen or was in the area that night have information that could help investigators?
