Enrique Eduardo Gallegos was two years old when he was killed by a gunshot in East Los Angeles on November 10, 1998. He is remembered as a joyful child who enjoyed visits with his Uncle Carlos and his grandmother and could watch Toy Story repeatedly.

Police determined Enrique was an innocent bystander struck during a gang-related shooting tied to a confrontation between rival groups. The LAPD investigated, interviewed witnesses, and collected scene evidence, but arrests were not immediately made. Witness reluctance and fear of retaliation were reported as significant obstacles to the case.

Enrique’s death has been used by advocacy groups to underscore the human cost of gang violence and the need for community cooperation in investigations. Did anyone who knew Enrique or who was in that neighborhood on November 10, 1998, see or hear anything that could help the case?
