Dolores Sanchez was 28 when she was shot and killed in Gardena, California, on July 31, 2018. The shooting took place in the early hours in a mobile home park on 135th Street; Sanchez was seated in the driver’s seat when a gunman opened fire on the vehicle. A passenger, Saith Pedraza, was also wounded in that attack.

The assailant then forced a married couple to drive him to Lynwood, where the husband, Francisco Montes, was shot and killed and the wife was shot at but survived when the gun jammed. The motive reported at the time was the shooter’s belief that his pregnant ex-girlfriend, Ana Ortiz, had set him up to be attacked by rival gang members; Ortiz sustained a gunshot wound to the neck but survived and was four months pregnant.

The case involved multiple killings and attempted killings across two cities and affected several families. If anyone knew Dolores, Saith, Francisco, Ana, or has information about the events that night, please come forward with what can help.
