Israel Sosa Villalobos, a 63-year-old Latino man, died on August 5, 2015, after being strangled in Boyle Heights. According to Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner records, his death is recorded at the address 363 S. Gless St. The Los Angeles Police Department's Hollenbeck Division is listed as the agency associated with the case.
Beyond the basic demographic and scene information, public records for this case are sparse. The Los Angeles Times Homicide Report entry for Villalobos notes only his age, race, cause of death and the location where he was found, citing coroner records. The report does not provide details about his personal background, family, occupation, or circumstances leading up to the killing, and no narrative of investigative steps or suspect descriptions is included on the available public page.
There is no publicly posted information on the Homicide Report page indicating an arrest, charge, or closure in Villalobos's case. As recorded by the Times archive, the case is tied to LAPD Hollenbeck but remains without publicly reported resolution. No tip line, reward notice, or additional investigative update is provided on the cited page. The case therefore remains unsolved in the public record available through the cited source.
