Francisco Rodriguez, 17, was shot to death Wednesday night in front of his home on Cozycroft Avenue in Winnetka.
A soccer teammate had just dropped the goalie off at his house after a game when a female reportedly came to the house and asked Rodriguez to come outside.
He was then shot three times before the suspect or suspects fled.

Ian Kogan, the teams coach, told CBS2 and KCAL9′s Serene Branson, that the deceased was just a great kid. Funny. Always cracking jokes. Fun to be around.
He added, I loved him. I truly loved him. Got to know him
he was a great kid. He meant well.
If I was law enforcement.. the first question I would ask is what is the name of the EX-girlfriend?
Why is the shooter “unnamed”? Not white?
FYI There are no White People anywhere near this area, This is right in the middle of the Ghetto, Which by the way is the entire San Fernando Valley with the exception of the very outskirts.

Sadly, as soon as I read "Los Angeles" that became my assumption.
How we went from Dragnet and The Brady Bunch to this current sorry state is a mystery only to liberals.
Yeah,I drive thru it twice a day. Not far from my neighborhood.

Find out if the victim was on the winning or losing team and they'll have their first clue as to motive.
I'm guessing he let in the losing goal for his team.
I wonder if when she shot him she yelled “GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL”?
A better way to evaluate a neighborhood is to go to Greatschools.

83% Latino
7% Asian
3% Black (they are growing in numbers fast)
3% White
2% Filipino
Students eligible for free breakfast, lunch and dinner: 87%
English learners: 56%
I like that show. Sometimes there are people standing nearby that tell the thieves it's a bait car, but they try to steal it anyway. They can't stop themselves.
The dead kid's high school, for comparison, is 7% African American, 1% American Indian, 14% Asian, 25% Latino, 53 % White (not Latino), 5% English Learners, 7% Special Education, 43% Gifted and Talented, 22% Economically Disadvantaged. They've also won the National Academic Decathlon several times in the last decade or so and are considered one of the jewels of the LAUSD.
Yeah, there are no Mexicans or blacks in Pennsylvania...Or twisted pedophile perverts working at your schools, preying on students...
The only sad thing here is your comment.
