Cerritos/Bellflower, CA
Scary morning.
A horrific scene played out behind a well known 7-11 Store near Artesia Boulevard and Palo Verde Drive here on the Cerritos/Bellflower boarder.
A man's bullet-riddled body was found inside his vehicle in the alley behind a popular location and straddles the two communities.Image via Wikipedia The identity of the victim has not been released.
I just got off the phone with Lt. Bale from the Los Angeles County Coroners Office and he told me that they DO HAVE know who the victim is, but they are not going to release his name due to "pending notification" of next to kin.
Members of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department arrived at the location, in a back alley, at around 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday when they discovered a "bullet ridden" body located inside of a vehicle.
Lt. Bale told me that the victim had "multiple" gun shots, and was pronounced dead at the scene. It is believed that the deceased man is in his 20's.
This "strip center" includes a 7-Eleven, a dentist office, a nail shop, and bank ATM location. As soon as the name of the victim is released, and any additional updates, I will post them here on my blog. If you live in this area, please feel free to share your thoughts on my "comment" section below this blog post.

I live at the apartment complex across the street. Didn't hear any shots. Cops EVERYWHERE today.
wow. this is normally a really safe area. do u know the name of who got killed?
scary.
thanks for posting this.
I believe he worked at the 711.
I ride my bike around there around 1:00a .m. I guess it's time to change routes.
What the hell is going on in our area?
I'm sorry to hear this,it is really sad I just shopped there last week. I pray that god is going to take care of wrong doing. Prayers go out to the family.
Extremely saddened by what happened to that young man. I actually live down the street from where this happened and I go to the 7-11 quite frequently. Never thought something like that would happen over here. This neighborhood is generally quiet. This was the first site I actually saw this story on . I wonder why "mainstream" media didn't pick this up?
He was my co-worker at 7eleven he was only 22years old he was a great guy and a very hard worker U will be miss and remembered rushan
Does anyone have an update on this murder? Thursday afternoon.
Randy,
Swat stormed a house in our neighborhood on 04/05/2011 about 4:pm. A young woman I understand was arrest for murder.
Are these cases related?
Any updates?
