Sergio Beltran, a 37-year-old Latino, was shot and killed on April 12, 2016, in downtown Los Angeles. The shooting took place shortly before 10:40 p.m. at a gas station in the 1300 block of East Washington Boulevard. Coroner’s records show Beltran was pronounced dead on the sidewalk at 10:33 p.m.

LAPD Detective Rich Arciniega said Beltran had been in an altercation with two or three people at a nearby restaurant moments before the shooting. Those involved followed him to the gas station, and one of them shot him before fleeing in a small car. Detectives released surveillance images of a person of interest and offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. The LAPD asked anyone with information to contact Newton homicide detectives or Crime Stoppers.

Beltran’s family and community were left seeking answers after his death. Does anyone have information about the altercation that preceded the shooting or recall seeing a small car leaving the 1300 block of East Washington Boulevard that night?
