Jack David Eloyan, a 22-year-old white man, was stabbed to death Monday, June 8, in the 1700 block of North Vermont Avenue in Los Feliz, according to Los Angeles County coroner's records.

Eloyan was stabbed in the chest and chin by an unknown number of assailants about 4:15 a.m., then drove himself to the hospital a few blocks away, said Los Angeles Police Department Northeast Homicide Det. H. DiCroce.

The victim walked into the hospital and collapsed, the detective said. He was pronounced dead at 4:47 a.m.

Eloyan lived in the Los Feliz area, but DiCroce said investigators don't know why he drove to the area where he was stabbed, or what caused the fight between him and his assailants.

All the businesses on that street were closed at that time, DiCroce said. Eloyan was dressed casually, in shorts, a T-shirt and tennis shoes.

Anyone with information is encouraged to call LAPD Dets. DiCroce or L. Governo at (323) 344-5744 during normal business hours or the LAPD Northeast Division watch commander on weekends or after hours at (323) 344-5701. Those wishing to remain anonymous should call Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-TIPS (8477).

What a loss the world lost such a brilliant sweet hearted person, I remember when he was 10 or 11 years old he found an injured bird on the street cured it, when I asked him what he wanted to be when he grows up, he said doctor, though later I lost the contact with him later I found out indeed he was studying to become a doctor, but what I found out later really shocked me, who couldve hate such a sweet hearted person even if he said or did something wrong, we all do mistakes, they could've talk out, my God at that age he was friendly with all the block's children including adults, what a cruel world..... if he was allowed to live God knows how many people he would help live, but guess what they took his before he got there, don't they have a mother too; my heart will live with the presence of his sweet soul, and that sweet hearted mother of him , who will suffer with the pain of loosing her son for the rest of her life, Jesus will be her counseler, as His mother suffered the same way
