Dwane A. Lefeiloai, a 21-year-old resident of Los Angeles, was shot and killed in Wilmington on Monday, October 24, 2005. Coroner’s records list his death as a homicide; reports say he was shot multiple times and died at the scene. He was identified as an Asian male.

Initial reporting and follow-up investigations struggled to establish a motive or identify the shooters. Investigators reviewed surveillance footage and interviewed potential witnesses, but no clear eyewitness or conclusive evidence emerged, and there were no significant arrests or breakthroughs reported in the years after the killing. The case remained unsolved and weighed heavily on his family and the Wilmington community.

If anyone has information about Dwane’s death or remembers seeing anything in Wilmington on October 24, 2005, please come forward to help bring answers.
