Tavin Terrel Price, 19, was shot and killed on May 29, 2015, around 11 a.m. at a self-service car wash near 3312 W. Florence Ave. in Hyde Park. He was with his mother and a family friend when a man confronted him about his red shoelaces; the confrontation escalated and the gunman, described as a black man in his late teens or early 20s, pulled out a gun and shot Price. His mother chased the shooter but he escaped. Price was taken to a hospital and was pronounced dead during surgery at 12:46 p.m. Price had a mental disability and was not affiliated with any gang.

A woman who was with the gunman was later arrested and charged with aiding and abetting. The Criminal Gang Homicide Division handled the investigation and the LAPD sought witnesses. Three men — Kanasho Shadrick Johns, Kevin Deon Johnson, and Dwight Smith — were implicated in the killing. Johns was said to have fired the fatal shots; Johns and Johnson received 50-year prison terms, and Johns got an additional three years for being a felon in possession of a firearm. Smith pleaded guilty to manslaughter and testified against Johns and Johnson, facing a possible 12-year sentence. Price’s mother, Jennifer Rivers, spoke in court about her grief and anger.
