Omar Eliceo Bourdet, a 22-year-old Latino man, was killed on October 14, 2007, after a brawl at a quinceañera rental hall in the 2800 block of East Olympic Boulevard in Los Angeles. The fight began inside the venue and moved outside, where a gun was drawn and fired; Bourdet was the only person struck. He was taken to California Hospital by partygoers who then left the scene, and he died shortly after arrival despite trauma surgery.

Investigators determined the shooting was an instance of friendly fire during the chaotic altercation, which reportedly started over a girl. Detectives from the LAPD Hollenbeck Division arrested at least one Latino suspect and ultimately cleared the case as not premeditated murder but an accidental shooting. Bourdet was the father of an 8-month-old and unemployed at the time; his family and community were deeply affected.

Did anyone at the party or nearby that night see what led to the gun being fired?
