Douglas Muhammad Wilson, 35, was shot and killed on the morning of June 22, 2015, in the 800 block of Cedar Avenue in Long Beach. He was moving his car about 9 a.m. when witnesses reported hearing numerous gunshots; Wilson was declared dead at the scene by responding officers. Neighbors said the shooter may have emptied an entire clip. The streets around the scene were closed during the investigation and a SWAT team searched a nearby residence but found no additional suspects.

Investigators arrested 26-year-old Jorge Luis Cruz of Long Beach. Cruz was charged with murder by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office four days after the shooting. On August 1, 2015, Long Beach police recognized him as a passenger in a stopped car; he tried to flee, was taken into custody and held on $2 million bail. He pleaded not guilty on August 18, 2015. Police have not disclosed a motive and continue to seek tips from the public.

Wilson had worked 17 years as a produce manager at Ralphs and was known for his devout Muslim faith. Does anyone have information about that morning or saw activity in the 800 block of Cedar Avenue?
