On March 4, Bobby Jones died of a gunshot wound in the 4100 block of Palmwood Drive in Crenshaw. The 28-year-old black man got into an argument with the alleged shooter in the street of a residential neighborhood.

Jones was then shot in the chest, according to coroner's records.

The Los Angeles Times reported that he was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where he succumbed to his wounds around 4:30 p.m.

The location of the shooting is a block away from Santa Barbara Plaza Shopping Center and half a mile from Rancho Cienega Sports Center.

The LAPD Criminal Gang Homicide handled the case, so it can be assumed that the shooting was gang-related.
