Azzaam Stallsworth, 31, of Hawthorne, California, was shot and killed on July 16, 2014. Around 12:50 a.m. he was driving a gold sedan with his girlfriend and stopped in an alley near her Prairie Avenue home when a dark-colored SUV approached slowly and someone inside opened fire. Stallsworth drove a few feet and crashed into an iron gate; he was taken to Harbor UCLA Medical Center and pronounced dead at 1:38 p.m. His girlfriend was uninjured.

Police arrested 22-year-old Donte Bay McNeil of Gardena later that day. McNeil, who had a prior relationship with Stallsworth’s girlfriend, was charged with one count of murder and allegations of lying in wait and discharging a firearm; he pleaded not guilty and was held on $1 million bail. Stallsworth is remembered as a father who left behind a young daughter and as a former college football player who was managing music artists for a record company he co-founded.

Who in Hawthorne might have seen the gold sedan or the dark SUV that night, or has other information about the alley shooting?
