Sabrina Mari Barcenas, a 19-year-old Latina, tragically lost her life on November 14, 2016, after being fatally shot in Huntington Park, California. The incident occurred on November 7, 2016, around 9:30 p.m., when Huntington Park police responded to calls about a gunshot victim near a baseball diamond. Upon arrival, officers found Barcenas lying on a table with several gunshot wounds.
She was immediately taken to a hospital and placed on life support but was pronounced dead a week later at 10:01 p.m. on November 14, according to the Los Angeles County coroner's records.
Investigators believe that Barcenas was with several other individuals in the park when the gunman opened fire. The suspect was described as a Latino male with a slim build, approximately 5 feet, 5 inches tall, and wearing dark pants. He was last seen fleeing the scene in a green sedan. Despite efforts to gather information, the case remains unsolved, and authorities have urged anyone with information to contact the Huntington Park Police Department or Crime Stoppers to provide anonymous tips.
The investigation into Barcenas' death has been ongoing, with the Huntington Park Police Department actively seeking leads. The lack of immediate arrests or suspects has made the case particularly challenging. The community has been encouraged to come forward with any information that might help solve the case and bring justice to Barcenas and her family. The tragic nature of her death has left a lasting impact on the community, highlighting the need for continued efforts to address and prevent such violent incidents.
