Marco Ricardo Arguelles, a 17-year-old Latino male, was shot and died of his injuries on June 14, 2000, in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, according to Los Angeles County coroner’s records. The neighborhood is described as one that has struggled with gang violence and crime, and his death became another tragic loss among local youth.

The LAPD opened an investigation after the shooting. The case has been hampered by a lack of witnesses willing to come forward, and there have been no reported arrests or identified suspects. Sporadic updates have not produced any major breakthroughs, and the homicide remains open.
