Jose Daniel Nunez Garcia was 27 when he was shot and killed on May 6, 2021, in Westlake, California. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner‑Coroner records place the shooting near the intersection of Alvarado Street and Wilshire Boulevard; he was struck in the evening and died at the scene.

The LAPD treated the death as a homicide and conducted a focused investigation: canvassing the area, interviewing witnesses, and reviewing surveillance footage. Detectives developed leads suggesting a possible connection to gang activity in the neighborhood, but witnesses’ reluctance to come forward and the lack of clear evidence have hampered identification of suspects.

No arrests have been announced and the case remains open. If anyone saw the shooting near Alvarado and Wilshire on the evening of May 6, 2021, or has information about Jose Daniel Nunez Garcia’s death, please come forward to the LAPD.
