Plutarco Salguero Soriano, a 26-year-old Latino, was shot and killed Sunday, Jan. 30, in the 800 block of North Hicks Avenue in East Los Angeles, according to Los Angeles County coroner's records.

Authorities received a call about a shooting victim about 3:30 a.m., said sheriff's homicide Lt. J. Corina.

The assailant was described as a "male Hispanic adult, but there's no other information," Corina said.

Anyone with details about the identity of the shooter is asked to contact the sheriff homicide bureau at (323) 890-5500. Those wishing to remain anonymous can call Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-8477.
