LA Public Asked For Help To Find Killer Of 4 Year Old
The Daily News website reported on January 15, that yet another innocent child, just 4 years old, died on the streets of Los Angeles as a result of gang violence. Roberto Lopez, Jr., 4 was walking with his sister on his way to a community center two houses down from their home when he was struck in the violent crime.
Serafin Gonzalez, the boy’s grandfather, who was inside the house said they were about to call in the kids for dinner when they heard gunshots. Gonzalez said his granddaughter came in crying “They hit Robert! They hit Robert!” Thinking it was a street fight he was not too alarmed. She then cried, “There’s blood in his mouth.” Gonzalez then ran to the boy.
Gonzalez said, “I cleaned the blood from his mouth so he wouldn’t choke. I’m trying not to remember that moment. It’s pain you just can’t bear.”
According to the authorities, a group of men were walking on Bixel Street when a red vehicle, possibly a red Toyota Scion, went by causing an altercation between them in this Los Angeles violent crime. The men on foot then began shooting at the vehicle as it sped away. A bullet likely intended for the men inside the vehicle struck Robert Gonzalez Jr. on the chest as he stood on the sidewalk.
