A story for every victim

Victor De Los Santos, 19

Victor De Los Santos, a 19-year-old Latino, was shot and killed Saturday, June 5, in the 3300 block of Verdugo Road in Glassell Park, according to Los Angeles County coroner's records.

Police responded to reports that shots had been fired early Saturday morning and found De Los Santos suffering from several gunshot wounds, said LAPD Northeast Det. TJ Morris.

De Los Santos was pronounced dead at the scene at 12:45 a.m., according to coroner's records.

Another victim, a 19-year-old Latino, was also shot and taken to Glendale Memorial Hospital, Morris said. He was later transferred to another hospital for treatment.

At least one of the victims had gang ties, Morris said, and it’s believed the shooting was gang-related.

Currently, investigators do not have a description of the possible shooter, Morris said.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact Dets. Sean Wells or Jose Carrillo at (213) 847-4261.
