Authorities are asking for the public’s help to locate a person of interest in a gruesome triple homicide in the Antelope Valley.
The victims, two men and a woman, were found around 4:45 p.m. Sunday in a remote stretch of road in the desert near Lancaster.
The two male victims were fatally shot in a truck which was attached to a camper trailer, while the woman was gunned down in a nearby car. All three were pronounced dead at the scene.
Very little information has been released about the killings, with the identities of the victims still yet to be released.
But on Tuesday, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department issued a call for public assistance in locating a man who has been identified as a person of interest in the case.
LASD officials say Axel Abel Trevino, 32, is wanted in connection with the killing. Trevino is described as 5 feet 9 inches and weighing around 180 pounds.
Officials said he was last seen driving a silver 2021 Nissan Altima near the scene of the shooting at the intersection of 215th Street E and Avenue Q.
A photo of Trevino’s vehicle was shared Tuesday, showing visible damage on the passenger-side front quarter panel.
Anyone who’s seen either Trevino or the vehicle is urged to contact the LASD Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500. Anonymous tips can be provided online or by calling 800-222-8477.
