Henry Estrada, a 27-year-old Los Angeles resident, was fatally shot on December 27, 2015, in the Hollywood Hills near Camrose Drive and North Sycamore Avenue. Estrada and his girlfriend had gone to a rental party house when a man contacted them by electronic communication, lured them outside under the pretense of meeting someone, then confronted the couple. The man chased Estrada up Camrose Drive and shot him multiple times; Estrada was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police identified 33-year-old Tien Phuong Hua as the suspect and said Hua had a prior relationship with Estrada’s girlfriend, which appears to have been the motive. After the shooting Hua allegedly tried to kidnap his former girlfriend; she escaped and Hua fled in his car. Two days later LAPD officers went to Hua’s Rosemead residence to serve a warrant. Hua barricaded himself for about six hours; SWAT and negotiators were called, tear gas was used, and Hua climbed onto a storage shed holding an object. Officers ordered him to surrender; when he pointed the object toward them a SWAT rifle round struck him and he was pronounced dead.

Investigators reported Hua’s car contained an intact handgun and fragments of another handgun consistent with the weapon used to kill Estrada. Does anyone have information about Henry’s final movements that night or saw the vehicle involved?
