Written by AARON CASTREJON CityWatch Editor PASADENA – Homicide detectives continue their search for the person who shot and killed a 13-year-old boy November 20.
Family identified the teen as Iran Moreno-Balvaneda. The teen was reportedly in his room in the 900 block of North Raymond Avenue Saturday around 6:12 p.m. when a bullet pierced through a window and struck him. Pasadena Police first arrived to the scene. “Life-saving measures were given by the officers. The fire department responded and quickly transported this 13-year-old to the hospital where he was later pronounced deceased,” Burgess told SGV CityWatch. A suspect remains at-large. It is not publicly clear if the gun was fired at the home with intention, or if it was a stray bullet that unfortunately found a victim. Investigators have not said if they know where the gunfire came from. “The devil came to Pasadena yesterday,” Burgess said in Sunday morning interview. In a press conference November 21, Pasadena Police Chief John Perez said investigators have many hours of surveillance footage to wade through from the surrounding area to see if the gunman was nearby and that they intend to seek additional video. Anyone with information on this shooting is urged to call the Pasadena Police Department at 626-744-4241. Information can be provided anonymously by calling LA Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), through the P3Tips mobile app, or lacrimestoppers.org. |
