Genesis Daniel Lopez was 18 and a Pomona resident when he was fatally shot on January 12, 2014. He and another person were tagging buildings in the 900 block of East Holt Avenue about 2:30 a.m. when they were confronted by two people. One of those individuals produced a gun and shot Lopez multiple times in an alley south of Holt Avenue. He was pronounced dead at the scene; the Los Angeles County coroner listed multiple gunshot wounds as the cause of death.

Police received a 911 call, responded to the alley and have not disclosed the identities of the suspects. No arrests have been reported in connection with the shooting. The killing was Pomona’s first homicide of 2014 and prompted public grief and calls for justice; a Facebook page called Pomona, Let’s Take Our Hometown Back was created to honor victims including Lopez.
