Walter Battle was 24 when he was shot and killed June 5, 2014, in Westmont, California. He was walking south on South Budlong Avenue in the 9000 block shortly before 6:45 p.m. when two sedans traveling the same direction stopped alongside him. A person from one of the cars exited, exchanged words with Battle, then opened fire. Battle was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 7:16 p.m.

A 34-year-old woman nearby suffered a graze wound and was treated by paramedics. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department opened a homicide investigation and urged anyone with information to contact the Sheriff’s Department Homicide Bureau or Crime Stoppers. No public details about arrests or suspects have been reported.

Did anyone in Westmont see those two sedans or notice anything unusual on South Budlong Avenue that evening?
