Jean Carlos Delarosa, a 24-year-old Latino, died Sunday, Sept. 22, after he was shot in the 18200 block of Sugarman Street in Tarzana, according to Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s records.

The other person in the car was not injured.

Delarosa was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 2:55 a.m., according to coroner’s records.
