Artemio Alvarado Jr., a 23-year-old Latino man, was shot and killed in Wilmington, Los Angeles, on August 6, 2007. The attack occurred about 12:50 a.m. on West Chandler Street in the LAPD Harbor Division’s jurisdiction. Reports say he was struck by as many as four bullets from an assault rifle and died at the scene shortly after the shooting.

The circumstances are described as particularly violent and suggest a targeted assault rather than a random act. Few media reports covered the case, and detailed updates about the investigation are scarce.

If anyone knew Artemio, saw activity on West Chandler Street that night, or has information that could help, please come forward.
