WTF is going on??!?!!!!? People are literally losing their minds aren’t they? Yes, that was a rhetorical question! My heart goes out to this man’s family. I have no other words. 💔

[BeemerTwelve]

The killer came out of the car because he wanted the victim to see him/her. It is pretty obvious they knew each other.

[Scotts]

I would never walk my dog after dark and carry your firearm when alone and walking your dog.

[macks]

People in LA need to pass tougher laws to eliminate punks like that and stop being soft on crime and on criminals. Punks like that should lose their right to live since they decided on taking someones right to live

[Bagman]

I can't believe nobody heard the gun shots. If that man was out walking his dog then there had to be someone else up in that neighborhood or they're very sound sleepers. So so sad.

[BrooklynBaby]

I moved to LA a few years ago thinking it would be similar to parts of NorCal and would meet other young smart urban people. Yea F that… this place is the bottom of the barrel. Can’t even walk around safely!

I’m out!

[MilesBellas]

The lady has lived in this neighbourhood all her life and said nothing like that has happened before.

People can’t do anything anymore. Too much crime

[rosaspanjol]

That poor dog is running, he does not understand what is going on….. 🙏Condolences 🙏 to the family.

[MrMrgarmor]

Mistaken identity? Get out of your car and talk to the guy then kill him? I think he got what who he wanted!!

[durandjohnson]

I hope that the cameras pick up something, this is why it's so important to have cameras these days!

[bobbymoss]

So ugh, did anyone see the suspect? You figure someone on the block would have ring camera or security cam footage, no?

[aldoogie]

Our mayor has zero clue how to deal with this dire situation.

[mrt.]

(IM NOT SAYING THIS IS JUSTIFIED) I have seen a neighbor beat up a guy for refusing to pick up his dog poop. Violence is not the answer people.

[jl]

Someone was walking their dog; now he is dead. And now for the weather...

[ronrondrewthat]

Find the idiot that did Prayers 🙏🏼 for the family

[mikehud]

If the dog had a gun it could have saved his owner. more guns please.

[Aus]

What's the point of having a city, if we can't even keep our citizens safe?!

[Bluntedco.]

it was probably something petty like his dog took a dump at someones house/lawn and he did not clean it up. it is always something petty. rip to that man!

[Lipo]

These are the consequences of defund the police.
