Reginald Foreman was shot and killed on August 6, 2026 in Hyde Park, South Los Angeles while working on a 2nd Call project. The DA has charged Kody Townsend with murder and related gang and firearm enhancements, and Jeremiah Abdelhameed was charged with accessory after the fact and is in custody while a warrant remains out for Townsend, who is reportedly at large; prosecutors say the killing was gang-motivated and involved an AR-style rifle. Skipp Townsend was briefly arrested in a separate alleged conspiracy probe but reportedly wasnt charged, tho the whole thing has a lot of moving parts and court dates are just getting set. Hoping Foreman’s family gets answers and justice thru the legal process.

Reginald Foreman, 51, was shot and killed in South Los Angeles on the afternoon of August 6, 2026. Foreman, a Black man known for his community activism and work with violence-prevention nonprofit 2nd Call, was working on a fencing project near Crenshaw Boulevard and West 59th Street when a lone gunman approached and opened fire at about 3:15 p.m., striking him multiple times. First responders pronounced him dead at the scene.

Colleagues remembered Foreman, affectionately known as Baby Ant, as someone who had turned his life around and dedicated himself to helping at-risk youth and formerly incarcerated individuals. His death was the second fatal shooting of a 2nd Call staff member in just over a month. The LAPD described the suspect as a male about 18 to 20 years old wearing a ski mask, and investigators say they believe the shooting was gang-related; no arrests have been announced and the suspect remains at large.

Was anyone in the Hyde Park area near Crenshaw and West 59th Street on August 6 who saw or filmed anything that could help investigators?
