Deandre Netter, a 16-year-old black youth, was shot in the chest and the back at 5742 Golden West Avenue in Temple City at about 11:12 p.m. Wednesday, July 25, and died at 11:52 p.m.

Sheriff’s Lt. Gil Carrillo said that Deandre was walking with his twin brother and a friend--a Latino youth--when a light-colored car moving slowly from the opposite direction pulled alongside them. With no words, no preliminaries whatsoever, someone in the passenger seat started shooting and Deandre was struck. Carrillo said investigators don’t think the shooting was gang-related.

Update: Warrants have been issued for two outstanding suspects in this case. More information to come.
