Patrick Keaton, 19, was fatally shot on April 13, 2015, while standing on the sidewalk in the 1100 block of East 52nd Street in the Central-Alameda neighborhood of Los Angeles. An SUV drove up and someone inside opened fire on the group he was with; multiple people were struck. Keaton was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 5:16 p.m. Herman Owens, 34, also died; a third person survived.

Keaton’s family described him as respectful and polite; he was involved in entrepreneurial projects with his grandfather and had been expected to pick up his younger brother that day. The community offered support to the family while prosecutors moved forward: on May 7, 2015, 28-year-old Darron Williams was arrested and charged with the murders of Keaton and Owens, and authorities said they were not seeking additional suspects. A scheduling hearing was set for July 9, 2015.

What information or memories do readers have about that block of East 52nd Street or the people who were there that afternoon?
