Latorria Westbrook, 26, was fatally shot on July 19, 2013, in the Vermont Vista neighborhood of Los Angeles. She was walking from a store to meet friends when a lighter-colored sedan pulled up, and a gunman inside the vehicle fired multiple shots. She was pronounced dead at the scene at 11:55 p.m.

At least two people were believed to have been in the vehicle. The LAPD’s South Bureau Criminal Gang Homicide Division says witness cooperation has been limited, and no arrests have been made. Latorria’s mother, Ottavia Smith, has spoken about the family’s loss and the effect on Latorria’s five-year-old daughter; the family has continued public advocacy for justice. Latorria’s brother, Lorenzo, had also been killed by gun violence two years earlier.

Anyone with information about the shooting, the lighter-colored sedan, or the people involved is urged to contact the LAPD or provide an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers.
