Juana Reyes Espinosa, a 65-year-old Latino woman, was shot and killed on May 2, 1992, in Willowbrook, California, while walking down a street. Los Angeles County coroner records list her as a gunshot fatality that occurred during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. She was not the intended target; a teenage boy, aiming at two other youths, accidentally shot her after firing at those individuals.

The shooter was apprehended and faced legal proceedings; the case arose amid the broader violence and confusion of the riots and has been described as an unintended killing of a bystander.

Did anyone in Willowbrook at the time remember Juana or have information about that block on May 2, 1992?
