Joshua Cornell Brown, 30, was shot and killed on May 24, 2015, in Los Angeles. The shooting took place in the 100 block of West 84th Street in the Florence neighborhood shortly after 7 p.m. Coroner’s records say Brown and another person were standing on the southwest corner of West 84th and South Main when two men approached; one produced a gun and fired, striking Brown multiple times. He was pronounced dead at the scene and the shooters fled in an unknown direction.

The Los Angeles Police Department’s Criminal Gang Homicide Division is handling the investigation. The family says suspects have been identified but no arrests have been made; they have held community events and fundraisers while pushing for answers. Brown is remembered as an aspiring rap artist and a father who was attempting to move away from past gang affiliations and concentrate on his music.

Does anyone have information about that evening or the people involved that could help the investigation?
