Los Angeles news outlets are reporting the slaying of a 37 year old man in the parking lot of the multi-use office building that sits at the corner of Valencia Boulevard and The Old Road and houses such businesses as a Wells Fargo bank branch, the local branch of Pardee Homes and the law offices of Hacker and Braly. The slaying occured at around 6:45 pm on Tuesday, December 22.
While no one has released the name of the victim, KCAL is reporting the victim was the owner of a credit repair company that had recently relocated to the building and was holding its holiday party when the victim stepped outside and was shot multiple times standing next to a white BMW.
This is the third homicide in memory in that rather small slice of the SCV. Recall the stabbing death of an elderly restaurant worker in the Marketplace (unsolved) and the stabbing/vehicular homicide of the young man two years ago this Thanksgiving (solved) and this small area that residents consider quite safe attracts an outsize share of sudden horrendous violence.
