Timothy Ervin White Jr., 32, was shot and killed on July 28, 2014, in the Vermont Knolls neighborhood of Los Angeles. He was standing outside a home on the 900 block of West 79th Street at about 9:45 p.m. when two men approached. One greeted him before the other produced a gun and began shooting. The assailants fled in a dark-colored sedan east on West 79th Street toward Hoover Street. White was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 10:43 p.m.

White had past affiliation with the 74th Street Hoover Criminals. His father, Timothy Ervin White Sr., was shot and killed in 1999 at age 35 about a mile from where White Jr. was killed, and a 23-year-old cousin was killed eight years before White Jr. He had been released from prison in November 2013 after serving time for weapons and drug charges, was seeking employment, was spending time with his three sons, aged 15, 10, and 6, and he and his wife, Thomaya White, were expecting a daughter in February. The Criminal Gang Homicide Division of the Los Angeles Police Department is handling the investigation; no arrests have been announced and the suspects remain at large.

Can anyone with information about the shooting on West 79th Street in July 2014 help investigators?
