On Monday, Jan. 25, 2010, The Times launched a new version of the Homicide Report. You have arrived at the old blog.
Readers can no longer post new comments on this site, but we encourage you to join the conversation on our new site. The updated Homicide Report features an interactive map and searchable database of the more than 2,600 homicides in L.A. County since January 2007, when Times' reporter Jill Leovy first started this blog with the goal of covering each one.
Comments prior to Jan. 26 will, at least for now, remain archived here, with links provided in the new database.
If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail homicidereport@latimes.com, and we will do our best to respond.

Bruce Glover, 51, a black man, was shot dead in the torso and head near the intersection of West 59th Street and Estrella Avenue in South Los Angeles at about 11:50 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 15, in the LAPD 77th Street station area. His time of death was listed as two minutes before midnight. Officers responding to a radio call of a shooting in this cul-de-sac found Glover lying dead in the middle of the street, said LAPD Lt. Lyle Prideaux. People nearby had heard an argument, then gunshots. He was not from that neighborhood, and had spent some time in jail, police said.
