Jonixer Chavez-Ramirez, a 24-year-old resident of Los Angeles, California, tragically lost his life on November 28, 2016. Born on October 19, 1992, in Watsonville, California, Jonixer was fatally shot in the 4400 block of Sinova Street in Montecito Heights. According to the Los Angeles County coroner’s records and police reports, the incident occurred shortly before 7:30 p.m. while Jonixer was standing with a group of friends in the driveway of a home.
Two rounds were fired, and Jonixer was struck once. He was immediately taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The circumstances surrounding Jonixer's death remain unclear. Detectives have not determined whether the shots were fired by a person on foot or from a vehicle.
