Vincent Zamorano, 49, was shot and killed on December 4, 2010, in the 7600 block of Boer Avenue in West Whittier-Los Nietos. He was found by his father in a converted garage where he lived next to his father’s house; paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene. The coroner recorded multiple gunshot wounds and ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators said Zamorano had no gang affiliations and the motive remains unclear. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has not solved the case, and despite appeals for information no significant leads have emerged. The family says a person they believed connected to the killing was arrested in an unrelated residential burglary and then released, a development that has deepened their frustration.

Does anyone who lived in West Whittier-Los Nietos in 2010 remember anything unusual near Boer Avenue that December?
