Daryl Eugene Gatewood, 27, was shot and killed on August 23, 2014, in the Central‑Alameda neighborhood of Los Angeles.

The shooter was last seen walking north on South Central Avenue, though he may have fled in a vehicle. Detectives from the Newton Division are seeking witnesses and information; no arrests have been announced. Gatewood’s family and friends have urged anyone with knowledge to come forward.
