On the evening of April 16, 2014, 16-year-old Jose DeJesus Guerrero was shot and killed in Antioch, California. The attack happened about 8:30 p.m. on the 4900 block of Country Hills Drive, near his home. Guerrero was riding a motor-ped on the sidewalk when at least two individuals approached him; neighbors then reported hearing gunshots and he was found on the ground with multiple gunshot wounds. Officers and medical personnel performed life-saving measures but he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Antioch police have pursued several leads and recovered surveillance footage from a nearby residence that captured the shooting, but the images were not clear enough to identify the suspects. No arrests have been made. Guerrero’s family has offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest, and his sister Alejandra Guerrero said he had recently caught up on his studies and was looking forward to graduating high school. The family maintains a memorial at the site, which has been vandalized multiple times.

Anyone who knew Jose or who has information about the shooting is urged to contact Antioch police; even small details may help move this case forward.
