George Johnny Rodriguez Jr., a 30-year-old Latino, was shot and killed on April 13, 2011, in Wilmington, Los Angeles. Around 9:30 p.m. Rodriguez and his girlfriend were walking on a sidewalk when a vehicle drove past, parked, and two of the three occupants got out, chased him and fired several shots. He was struck in the upper torso, taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

The Harbor Area homicide division of the LAPD investigated but the motive remained unclear. Detectives urged anyone with information to come forward; the case has faced limited progress due to a lack of immediate leads and witnesses willing to provide information. No arrests or identified suspects have been announced and the investigation remains open.

If anyone knew George, saw the incident, or has information that could help detectives, please contact the Harbor Area homicide division.
