Steve Lopez was 22 when he was shot and killed on September 25, 2010, in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles. Officers responding to shots fired found him on the sidewalk in the 1300 block of Los Palos Street; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Reports say he had been sitting on a bike in front of a home when an unknown assailant approached and opened fire.

Investigators considered whether ongoing gang conflicts in the area led to Lopez being mistaken for a gang member, but it was confirmed he had no gang affiliation. His family described him as a well-known and beloved member of the Mid-City neighborhood who had battled health problems, including a brain tumor and multiple surgeries. The LAPD announced a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction, and appealed to the public for help. No arrests have been made and the investigation remained open.

Does anyone have information about that evening on Los Palos Street or knew Steve and can help investigators?
