Herlyn Barrientos Funez, a 47-year-old Latino man, was shot and killed inside a Los Angeles grocery store on February 18, 2025. The shooting took place at Superior Grocers at 91st and Figueroa Street after two suspects chased Barrientos into the store; the Los Angeles County coroner ruled the death a homicide from multiple gunshot wounds.

Reports say Barrientos had been associated with MS-13 and was cooperating with the FBI in a federal racketeering and drug trafficking case. He reportedly told an FBI agent on the phone that he had seen a man with a gun just before he was killed. Surveillance footage is said to show three MS-13 members entering the store and engaging with Barrientos before the shooting.

Three men—identified in charging documents as Roberto Carlos Aguilar, Dennis Anaya Urias, and Grevil Zelaya Santiago—have been charged in connection with the murder; prosecutors allege the defendants carried out the attack and face mandatory life sentences and potential death penalty exposure. All three are being held without bond.

Did anyone in the area see activity around Superior Grocers on the afternoon of February 18 that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
