Johannes Dahinten, a 32-year-old Latino man, was shot and killed on March 7, 2004, in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles. The Los Angeles County coroner’s records list a gunshot wound as the cause of death; reports indicate he was shot multiple times and died at the scene.

There were no immediate arrests and investigators struggled to develop substantial leads or find witnesses willing to come forward. The case has remained unsolved and is treated as a cold homicide by the Los Angeles Police Department. Occasional tips and leads have been reported over the years, but none produced a breakthrough and there have been no court actions tied to the murder.

Does anyone who lived in Boyle Heights in 2004 or who knew Johannes have information that could help bring answers?
