$50K Reward In 2007 Slaying Of Navy Reservist

LOS ANGELES Authorities are offering a $50,000 for information in the drive-by shooting death of a U.S. Navy reservist outside an El Sereno liquor store in 2007.

Jesus Guevara, 24, a U.S. Navy reservist, was walking from the liquor store at 3:15 p.m. on Aug. 18, 2007 toward his parked car when someone fired at him from a dark-colored, mid-size car, wounding him in the back, police said. He died three hours later at a hospital.

"It's not fair to lose him, to not have him around," Guevara's aunt, Maria Corona said. "We miss him terribly every day.... The irresponsible coward that did this has to come forward. They need to know that they took a life that was the engine that moved this family."

Detectives say they don't have a motive for the shooting. The reward is being offered by the Los Angeles City Council for information leading to the identification and arrest of the suspect.

Guevara served in the Navy as an aircraft mechanic for four years. When he returned to civilian life as a reservist, he worked for a steel company in South Gate.
