Marcos Perez, a 40-year-old Latino, was shot and killed on June 21, 2015, in Los Angeles’ Central-Alameda neighborhood. According to coroner’s records the shooting occurred about 11:30 p.m. while he was standing on a sidewalk in the 4300 block of Lima Street. Two vehicles — a small white sedan and a light-colored SUV — approached and a person inside the sedan opened fire. Perez was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 12:17 a.m. on June 22, 2015.

LAPD Detective Richard Arciniega led the investigation. No arrests or suspects have been publicly identified and police say the case remains unsolved; authorities asked anyone with information to contact Newton Homicide detectives or Crime Stoppers. The lack of witnesses and concrete leads has made identifying the shooters difficult.

If anyone saw activity near the 4300 block of Lima Street that night or has information about the two vehicles, please contact Newton Homicide or Crime Stoppers.
