Kenny Gardner, 57, was killed in a drive‑by shooting in Los Angeles on August 26, 2015. Gardner was the front passenger in a white Buick Century; the driver, also 57, had stopped after opening a gate to speak with a 48‑year‑old man on a bicycle when two vehicles approached and two gunmen opened fire. Paramedics pronounced Gardner dead inside the car at 12:18 a.m. The driver and the bicyclist were treated at a hospital for nonfatal injuries and released. Several parked cars nearby were also struck by gunfire.

Investigators say Gardner frequently visited the area to see a childhood friend; LAPD Detective Mark Hahn described the men involved as older and not gang‑affiliated and said Gardner probably did not see the shooters. Gardner’s sister Patricia remembered him as friendly, a father of six who liked barbecuing, working on cars and animals, and said he didn’t deserve what happened. The Criminal Gang Homicide Division handled the case; no arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced and authorities asked anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers.

Does anyone have information about that night or recall seeing the white Buick Century in the area?
