County authorities Monday released the name of a 26-year-old who was fatally shot in the chest, last week, in what may have been a gang-related killing in North Hollywood.
The Los Angeles County medical examiner’s office identified the victim as Delfino Moor, whose place of residence was not immediately available.
Moor was shot around 12:30 p.m. Thursday in the 7300 block of Lankershim Boulevard, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Officers arrived to find him down, suffering from a gunshot wound. Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics could not save him and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Earlier, police said the victim was approached by three male suspects moments before one of them opened fire.
Three suspects have been arrested in connection with the shooting.
Angel Banuelos, 31; Joshua Provencio, 21; and Jonathan Cuellar, 24, were all booked on suspicion of murder and were each being held on $2 million bail, according to the LAPD.
Homicide detectives were “actively searching the area for surveillance footage and witnesses,” police said.
Anyone with information about the deadly incident was urged to contact the Robbery Homicide Division Valley Bureau Section at 818-374-9550. Anonymous tips can be submitted through L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (800-222-8477) or www.lacrimestoppers.org.
