Rodney Elijah Love was 15 and a tenth-grader from Los Angeles when he was shot and killed on June 10, 2007. He was standing in the 1700 block of W. 80th Street in South-Central Los Angeles when a car drove by, pulled a U-turn, returned, and the occupants opened fire. Rodney was struck and died at the scene; his mother, Angela Cooke, witnessed his death and tried to get help.

Rodney was remembered for his ready smile, love of comedy and hopes to play football at Westchester High School.

If anyone knew Rodney, saw activity in that block on June 10, 2007, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
