Hugo Romero, 26 and a resident of Bellflower, California, was shot and killed in Hawaiian Gardens shortly after midnight on May 29, 2016. Romero had been visiting friends in his former neighborhood and was standing in the street with them when a dark-colored sedan approached and someone inside began firing. He was struck by multiple gunshots and was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 12:23 a.m. No one else was injured.

Investigators say the attackers’ vehicle was last seen driving north on Joliet Avenue. It remains unclear whether Romero was specifically targeted or whether the shooter fired indiscriminately at the group. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has asked anyone with information to contact their Homicide Bureau or Crime Stoppers. Does anyone who was in Hawaiian Gardens that night or who knows the area have information that could help bring answers for Romero’s family?
