SAN DIEGO (CNS) – Authorities reached out to the public for help identifying a gunman who opened fire at a large predawn party outside a Kearny Mesa hookah bar six months ago, wounding two people, one fatally.<\/p>\n

The gunfire erupted about 4:30 a.m. June 20 in a parking lot in front of Nara Ultra Lounge, 8065 Clairemont Mesa Blvd., according to the San Diego Police Department.<\/p>\n

The shooter fled in a vehicle prior to the arrival of patrol officers, who found 21-year-old Luis Sandoval Diaz and a 37-year-old woman suffering from bullet wounds.<\/p>\n

Paramedics took the victims to a hospital, where Diaz was pronounced dead, SDPD acting Lt. Joel Tien said. The woman, whose name was not released, was treated and released later that morning.<\/p>\n

Investigators believe there are witnesses to the deadly gunfire who have not come forward.<\/p>\n

“Many people were present at this event and left prior to police arrival,” Tien said on the day of the shooting.<\/p>\n

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call San Diego County Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477 or contact the agency online at sdcrimestoppers.org<\/a>. Tipsters may remain anonymous and could be eligible for a $1,000 reward.<\/p>\n
