Luis Jimenez, a 26-year-old Latino, was fatally shot Friday, Feb. 11, in the 2100 block of East Bliss Street in Willowbrook, according to Los Angeles County coroner's records.
The shooting was reported in the backyard of a home about 8:45 p.m., Los Angeles County sheriff's officials said.

Another victim, Anthony Jimenez, 24, was taken to St. Francis Medical Center and underwent surgery. He later died from several gunshot wounds.
The Jimenezes were brothers and Haro was their cousin, according to a coroner's investigator who declined to be identified.
