Nayeli Guerrero-Cruz, 26, was shot and killed on May 20, 2016, in the South Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. The Los Angeles County coroner’s records place the shooting at about 8:15 p.m. in the 100 block of East 47th Street. Guerrero-Cruz was pronounced dead in her bedroom at 8:26 p.m.

Police say the fatal shooting followed an argument between Guerrero-Cruz and her boyfriend, 43-year-old Ulises Espinoza. Authorities report Espinoza produced a handgun, shot Guerrero-Cruz, then called police. Detectives from the Newton Division arrested Espinoza at the scene on suspicion of murder; the district attorney’s office subsequently charged him with one count of murder with an allegation he fired a gun during the incident. Investigators noted there were no prior arrests or reports of domestic violence involving the couple.

Anyone with information about the events that led to this shooting or who saw activity in the 100 block of East 47th Street that evening is asked to contact the Newton Division homicide detectives or Crime Stoppers.
