Carolina Ramirez was 16 when she was shot dead in a drive-by on February 26, 2012, in Wilmington, Los Angeles. The shooting happened about 7 p.m. in the 500 block of Bay View Avenue; someone in a car pulled up and opened fire on Carolina and another 16-year-old, Meldrick Melgoza. Melgoza was shot first, and Ramirez ran to a parked car and tried to hide underneath it. She was found with gunshot wounds to her chest and legs and was pronounced dead at the scene along with Melgoza.

Authorities say the motive is unclear and it is not known whether the killings were gang-related. The neighborhood had seen a recent rise in violence, with 53 homicides reported within a two-mile radius since 2007. Investigators increased patrols and assigned detectives, but progress has been hampered by a lack of cooperation from residents who fear retaliation. No arrests have been announced and the suspects remain unidentified.

Did anyone in Wilmington on February 26, 2012, see a car or persons leaving the 500 block of Bay View Avenue that evening or have other information that could help identify the shooters?
