Police are searching for a suspect who gunned down a man as he was walking with his family in Covina.
The incident happened on June 22 near the 1100 block of East Wanamaker Drive at around 9:35 p.m., according to the Covina Police Department.
The victim, identified only as a 28-year-old man, was walking with his wife and their three children — an 11-year-old girl and 9-year-old twin boys.
Suddenly, a male suspect approached them and began walking in between the victim and his wife, prompting a verbal altercation.
That’s when the suspect pulled out a gun from his waistband and fired two shots at the victim, police said.
The victim was struck in the chest and the gunman immediately fled the area.
Officers responded to the scene and performed life-saving measures on the man before he was rushed to a local hospital where he died from his injuries.
