Saul Melchor, 25, was killed on August 4, 2010, in Van Nuys, Los Angeles. Coroner’s records state he was driving south on Langdon Avenue at about 8:25 p.m. when gunfire struck his vehicle. His white Dodge pickup then collided with several parked cars; Melchor was pronounced dead at the scene with a fatal gunshot wound to the head.

Investigators treated the shooting as likely gang-related, though it was not clear whether Melchor was the intended target. LAPD Mission Area homicide detectives Armando Acero and Mario Gonzalez were assigned to the case.

What information about that night, or about Saul’s movements in Van Nuys before 8:25 p.m., could help investigators identify who fired on his truck?
