Reward Authorized For Information Related to Fatal Shooting in Long Beach
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved a motion introduced by Supervisor Don Knabe to establish a reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) involved in the murder of Lashown Fils, a resident of Long Beach
On January 11, 2012, at approximately 3:55 am, Long Beach police officers responded to the area of 14th Street and Cedar Ave to a shooting with a subject down. When officers arrived, they discovered a male subject who had been shot in the upper torso. This subject was transported to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
Detectives have canvassed the area in an attempt to find additional witnesses to the incident and their efforts have been met with negative results. As of this date, no additional witnesses have come forward. Detectives feel it would be beneficial to offer a reward, which may prompt reluctant witnesses to come forward and provide information to identify the individual(s) responsible for this crime. They can remain anonymous.
