Authorities are offering a $15,000 reward for information on the suspect who killed a woman in a Los Angeles drive-by shooting in 2024.
On July 2, 2024, Raejonette Morgan, 22, was driving on Vermont Avenue near the 105 Freeway in the West Athens neighborhood of L.A.
As she approached the freeway, a suspect vehicle drove up alongside her and a gunman fired several shots at Morgan, killing her. Her Mercedes-Benz sedan crashed near the freeway onramp.
Footage posted by witnesses on social media showed Morgan’s vehicle was riddled with bullet holes as bystanders rushed over to help her.
She was rushed to Harbor UCLA Medical Center, where she died two days later.
Investigators with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department believe Morgan was the innocent victim of gang violence and was mistaken for someone else when the suspect’s vehicle drove up and opened fire.
The suspect vehicle is described as a blue, two-door 2016-2018 Honda Civic sedan. The car has a spoiler, louvers on the rear window, all-black wheels and a loud exhaust.
Morgan’s family held a candlelight vigil to honor her life while pleading for the public’s help in tracking down the person responsible.
On April 24, a $15,000 reward was announced by the L.A. County Board of Supervisors for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspect or suspects involved.
Anyone with information on the case is asked to call LASD’s Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500.
