Donta Jackson, 20, was shot and killed on September 27, 2015, in the Florence‑Firestone area of Los Angeles County. The shooting happened about 7:38 p.m. at East 92nd Street and Fir Avenue while Jackson was walking on the sidewalk near a family member’s home; he had plastic bags of water and groceries nearby, suggesting he was returning from a convenience store. Witnesses said two men approached him, gunfire was heard, and the suspects fled in a dark‑colored Infiniti. Jackson was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 8:29 p.m. from multiple gunshot wounds.

Investigators describe the attack as gang‑related, and law enforcement noted several other gang incidents that night, raising the possibility Jackson was an innocent bystander. Jackson’s family and friends remembered him as a polite, smiling young man. No arrests have been announced and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department continues to seek information.

Did anyone in the Florence‑Firestone area see the dark Infiniti or have information about the two men seen at the scene?
