Ricardo Nunez, 35, was shot to death on February 15, 2015, while standing outside a home in the 300 block of Douglas Street in Echo Park. Shortly before 8:30 a.m. a vehicle drove by and an occupant fired several rounds at Nunez. He was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 11:44 a.m.; the cause of death was a gunshot wound and the manner of death was ruled a homicide.

Rampart Division homicide detectives with the Los Angeles Police Department opened an investigation and have repeatedly asked the public for help. Despite those efforts, there have been no arrests and no suspects have been publicly identified. Friends and neighbors remembered Nunez as a kind, generous family man who wanted to become a civil administrator, and his family continues to seek justice.

Very little evidence or witness cooperation has been reported in the investigation. Does anyone who lived in or near Echo Park in February 2015 have information that could help identify the shooter?
