A 29-year-old suspect from Pacoima was arrested for a homicide that occurred on April 22 in the 1700 block of North Cherokee Avenue in Hollywood.
Members of the FBI Fugitive Task Force and the Los Angeles Police Department located the suspect, Raymond Jackson, at an undisclosed location in the San Fernando Valley on April 23, said Det. John Skaggs, with the LAPD’s West Bureau Homicide Unit.
The homicide occurred at approximately 8:40 a.m. on April 22 in a parking lot on Las Palmas Avenue, north of Hollywood Boulevard. Jackson is alleged to have become involved in an argument with the unidentified 27-year-old male victim, and then stabbed him before fleeing. Witnesses reported that the suspect fled in a pick-up truck that was later found abandoned on Camrose Drive, near the Hollywood Bowl.
Skaggs said the suspect and victim knew each other. They were traveling in the pick-up when the argument occurred, and pulled over in the parking lot.
“It was over property,” Skaggs added. “They were coming from Target. They got into a dispute that escalated into a physical altercation that escalated into the suspect getting a knife and stabbing the victim.”
The detective said the victim was from Inglewood. He did not know how long the suspect and victim knew each other, but said they frequented the Hollywood area.
No further details were available because of the ongoing investigation. Jackson was booked for murder and is being held on $1 million bail. Anyone with information is urged to call (323)382-9470.
