On August 23, 2024, 61-year-old Dr Hamid Mirshojae was fatally shot in an ambush outside his medical practice in the Warner Plaza Medical Center parking lot on Topanga Canyon Boulevard in Woodland Hills. He was walking to his car around 5:30 p.m. when a masked assailant opened fire, then fled to a waiting vehicle; Dr Mirshojae was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators later allege a conspiracy involving multiple people.

Dr Mirshojae, originally from Iran, practiced urgent and emergency care for more than two decades and worked in addiction medicine for over ten years. He was remembered by patients and colleagues as a caring physician. Has anyone with knowledge of Dr Mirshojae’s practice, the earlier assault, or the events around August 23 come forward with tips or information?
