Andrew Steven Lane, 23, of Santa Fe Springs was shot and killed on April 15, 2015. He was walking on Painter Avenue at about 7 p.m. when an unidentified man approached him and the two argued. The assailant drew a gun, fired multiple shots and struck Lane in the chest; Lane collapsed on the sidewalk and was pronounced dead shortly after 7:14 p.m. Whittier police arrived promptly and say the shooter fled north on Painter Avenue in a silver compact vehicle.

The suspect was described as a heavy-set male, either black or Latino. The Whittier Police Department opened an investigation and asked the public for tips, including anonymous leads; no arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved. Lane’s family and friends mourned his death.

Did anyone in the Painter Avenue area on the evening of April 15, 2015, see a silver compact vehicle or a heavy-set man that could help this investigation?
