Timothy Edward Record, a 38-year-old man from Los Angeles, was found dead in his 1997 Honda Accord on February 28, 2009. Coroner’s records list multiple gunshot wounds to the head, neck, and torso. The car was parked at the intersection of 1st and Utah streets in Boyle Heights and was discovered by a construction worker about 7:30 a.m.; empty bullet casings were scattered nearby. Neighbors reported hearing gunshots near 3 a.m., but no calls were made to police at that time.

The Los Angeles Police Department’s Hollenbeck division opened a homicide investigation but has not identified suspects or a motive. Investigators describe the case as difficult due to the absence of immediate witnesses and clear leads, and it remains open with detectives continuing to seek information. If anyone has information about Timothy Record, his movements that night, or heard or saw anything near 1st and Utah in Boyle Heights on February 28, 2009, contact Hollenbeck homicide detectives.
