Alberto Molina, 20
Alberto Molina, 20, a Latino young man, was killed on Saturday, June 16, at 12462 Osborne St. in LAPD's Foothill Division at a flyer party attended by scores of people. People paid at the door to enter the party, which featured hits of "nox" "noz"-- nitrous oxide distributed in balloons and used for quick, 20-second highs -- along with beer and a band, police said.
Molina was manning the gates and stopped a Latino party-goer to search him. As he moved to pat him down, the man protested, produced a weapon and fired several shots. One hit Molina in the chest. He was taken by friends to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Only a handful of the 100 or so party-goers, young people mostly between the ages of 15 and 20, offered information to police, detectives said. It was at least the second killing this year of someone working the door at a flyer party.
It "Noz", dude.

IT BOTHERS ME THAT U GUYS SAY THAT ALBERT STOPPED THE GUY AND PATTED HIM DOWN WHEN IN REALITY HE DIDNT EVEN COME IN CONTACT WITH THIS INDIVIDUAL.....U GUYS MAKE IT SEEM LIKE IF HE INTENDED TO KILL HIM FOR GETTING SEARCHED BY HIM.....
THIS PERSON WAS OUTSIDE OF THE GATE AND ALBERT WAS INSIDE THE GATE SEARCHING PEOPLE ONCE THEY CAME INSIDE BUT THE GUY NEVER CAME INSIDE TO HAVE ANY CONTACT W/ALBERT....
SOMEONE ELSE WAS TRYING TO SEARCH HIM OUTSIDE WHEN THE GUY POINTED HIS GUN INSIDE THE CROWD WHERE ALBERT WAS AND UNFORTUNATELY HE WAS SHOOT BY THE AIMLESS SHOTS....
