The updated Homicide Report features an interactive map and searchable database of the more than 2,600 homicides in L.A.

Victor Dominguez, a 25-year-old Latino, died on Thursday, Sept. 17, after he was beaten in the

Ed Winter, a spokesman for the coroner's office, said Dominguez was the victim of an apparent robbery on Sept. 13. His assailant hit him several times with a brick at about 2:15 a.m., and he was taken to a hospital for treatment, Winter said.
Dominguez died in the hospital four days later at 6:32 p.m.
