Seaborn Mason, 50, was shot and killed outside a convenience store in the 400 block of East South Street in Long Beach shortly before midnight on July 23, 2012. Officers responding to a shots-fired call found Mason on the sidewalk with multiple gunshot wounds to his upper torso; he was taken to a hospital and later died. Witnesses in the area did not report seeing an argument or altercation before the shooting, and although surveillance video showed several people nearby, no useful suspect descriptions were developed.

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction; that reward was renewed several times, most recently in early 2016. Mason’s family and investigators canvassed the neighborhood and distributed flyers, but the case remained unsolved and open. Anyone with information is asked to contact Long Beach Homicide Detectives Malcolm Evans or Todd Johnson at (562) 570-7247.

Did anyone in the neighborhood see anything that night or recognize anyone in the surveillance footage?
