Ray Lewis Rice, 34, was shot and killed in the early hours of February 7, 2014. The shooting occurred about 2 a.m. on the 5300 block of South Budlong Avenue in the Vermont Square neighborhood of Los Angeles. Police found Rice on the sidewalk and he was pronounced dead at 2:10 a.m.

Investigators say the shooter was reportedly riding a motorized bicycle, an uncommon detail in the area, and that cold weather that night may have allowed the attacker to conceal identity with a scarf and other clothing. A $50,000 reward was offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction, and the LAPD Criminal Gang Homicide Division has been handling the investigation.

No arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced. If anyone has information about the motorized bicycle or the events that night, please share what is known with investigators.
