Gevorg Gasparyan was 25 when he was shot dead during a robbery at about 3:30 a.m. on September 22, 2007. The killing took place at a home at 30007 Lexington Avenue in Val Verde, an area just west of Santa Clarita in the Santa Susana Mountains. Two masked robbers forced Gasparyan and another person to the ground at gunpoint; during a struggle one victim wrestled a gun away from a robber while the other robber shot Gasparyan. The assailants fled the scene.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department led the investigation and described the robbery motive as likely financial, but no arrests or suspects were immediately identified. Detectives kept the case open and asked the public for information. The lack of an early arrest left the case unresolved.

Did anyone in the Val Verde area at that time see or hear anything that could help identify the two masked robbers?
