Jacob Neftali Sosa, 37, of Baldwin Park, California, was shot and killed on April 20, 2015. He was found wounded on the front lawn of a two-story home in the 3800 block of Cosbey Street around 8:19 p.m. and was pronounced dead at the scene at 8:46 p.m. The Los Angeles County coroner’s records recorded his death.

Witnesses reported seeing two Latino men flee the scene toward Earl Avenue and Ramona Boulevard. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and local news outlets corroborated that detail. Police deployed a SWAT team and detained several people that night at a nearby residence on Earl Avenue for questioning, but no arrests were made immediately and no suspects were formally charged in the immediate aftermath. The Sheriff’s Department Homicide Bureau led the investigation.

Sosa was a father of two daughters and may have been visiting his parents, who rented an apartment at the back of the home where the shooting occurred. The family and neighbors described shock and fear after the killing. Who in the neighborhood saw something that night or has information that could help investigators?
