Juan Roman-Arzate was 24 when he was shot and killed on April 16, 2001, in East Hollywood, Los Angeles. Coroner’s records list the cause of death as multiple gunshot wounds, and the circumstances indicate he was the victim of a targeted attack.

No arrests or publicly identified suspects have been made in the case, and investigators report difficulty gathering evidence and locating witnesses. Sporadic public appeals for information have been issued over the years, but the case remains unsolved and Juan’s family continues to seek answers.

If anyone knew Juan, saw or heard anything in East Hollywood on April 16, 2001, or has information that could help, please share what you know with the Los Angeles Police Department.
