Abel Lopez was a 20-year-old Latino man who was fatally shot in East Hollywood, Los Angeles, on September 8, 2002. The Los Angeles County coroner ruled his death a homicide. The Los Angeles Police Department investigated the case, but there were no immediate arrests and no suspects publicly identified.

Family and friends have held vigils and appealed to the public for information over the years. The lack of witnesses and concrete evidence has hindered investigative progress, and with no arrests the case has not produced trials or litigation and remains open.

Does anyone who lived in East Hollywood in 2002 remember seeing or hearing anything that could help Abel’s family and investigators?
