L.A. County sheriff’s detectives have arrested a father and son in connection with three killings committed in East Los Angeles between 2014 and 2018.
Los Angeles County sheriff’s detectives on Thursday morning arrested a father and son in connection with three killings committed in East Los Angeles between 2014 and 2018.
. Reynaga said Anthony Velasquez had a “friendship” with all three, and while the lieutenant declined to discuss their ties in detail, he said: “It seems to us that at some point, their relationships went awry.” Avalos, Robles and Lopez were all killed in a roughly two-mile radius in East Los Angeles.
Robles, 38, was killed a year later. He was hanging out with friends in a parking lot behind an apartment complex on Eagle Street on the evening of July 6, 2015, when a man — whom detectives suspect to be Anthony Velasquez — climbed over a gate and confronted him. The two got into a fight, and after it broke up, the man climbed back over the gate, crossed the street to where Robles’ white GMC Jimmy SUV was parked and slashed its tires.
Lopez, 27, was killed in the early morning hours of April 22, 2018. She was living in a tent, one of many pitched in the complex of government buildings on 3rd Street in East Los Angeles, when a Chrysler PT Cruiser pulled to a stop nearby. A man, now identified as Anthony Velasquez, stepped out of the car, wearing a ski mask.
