Darryl Leon Ross, a 53-year-old man, was found fatally wounded on February 2, 2014, in Pomona, California. According to the Los Angeles County coroner's records, Ross was discovered in the 600 block of New York Drive. The Pomona Police Department reported that officers responded to the area around 7 a.m. after a motorist found an injured man in a parking lot. Upon arrival, officers found Ross had been shot multiple times and he was pronounced dead at the scene at 7:19 a.m.
Earlier that morning, around 2:45 a.m., several gunshots were heard by people working in the 1900 block of West Orange Grove, but they did not report the incident, assuming others would call the police.
The investigation into Ross's death revealed that he had been shot several times, but details about the motive or suspects remained unclear. The Pomona Police Department urged anyone with information to come forward, offering anonymity through Crime Stoppers. Despite these efforts, the case did not immediately yield any arrests or identified suspects. The community and Ross's family were left in mourning, with his brother expressing deep sorrow and a desire for justice.
As of the latest available information, there have been no significant developments in the case. The investigation remains open, with detectives continuing to seek leads that could help solve the murder. The lack of witnesses and concrete evidence has made it challenging for law enforcement to make progress. The Pomona Police Department continues to encourage anyone with information to contact them, hoping that new leads will eventually emerge to bring closure to Ross's family and friends.
