Friends and family will be joined by members of the Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau at the site of a makeshift memorial for Hernandez, who was a 21-year-old honor student when he was killed, at 11 a.m. at East 148th Street between Bahama Avenue and Loness Avenue in Compton, said Deputy Juanita Navarro-Suarez, Deputy of the Sheriff’s Information Bureau.

A $10,000 reward approved by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspect or suspects.
