Sketches Released of Suspects in West Covina Fatal Shooting

Sheron Khemlani, 29, from Hong Kong, was gunned down Feb. 1 in the parking lot of a restaurant row in the 100 block of North Barranca.

Authorities today released composite drawings of two of three men wanted in the killing of a Hong Kong man gunned down during a robbery in the parking lot of a West Covina restaurant row.

Sheron Khemlani, 29, was shot in the head in the 100 block of North Barranca Avenue about 2:30 p.m. Feb. 1, West Covina police Officer Rudy Lopez said.

"The victim was on vacation and had stopped to eat at one of the restaurants with his brother," Lopez said. "As the two were returning to their vehicle, which was parked in the middle of the parking lot, two suspects assaulted and then robbed them."

Khemlani's brother also was injured in the attack, police said.

The two attackers, who wore hooded sweatshirts, were described as 18-22 years of age, with light complexions and thin builds. They fled to a getaway vehicle described only as blue and having four doors. It was driven by a third man, also described as 18-22 years of age, who had short spiked hair and acne.

The composites are images of the getaway driver and one of the two suspects who attacked the victims. Anyone with information on the case was urged to call (626) 939-8557.

Anonymous tips can left at (626) 939-8688.

I wasn't talking about that, when did that happen, '73? Richard Nixon? That was a colossal waste ofRead More money. Nixon also started the EPA. Not many realize what a worthless Liberal he really was. He also took us off the Gold Standard which was the genesis for out of control gov spending.

How many people in wheelchairs, or blind people walking around have you ever seen in Walnut? I'veRead More lived here since 1968, I haven't seen one, not a single one. I have nothing against the handicapped, I do have a problem with the money it costs to jackhammer up sidewalks, and put ramps that nobody needs, especially 5 feet from a driveway aprin.

How about Hillary's failures: 1) Bill cheated on her 2) She was beat out for President by a Negro.Read More That is sure to "get" southern crackers like the Clintons, no matter how liberal they are. 3) Through incompetence, she is responsible for the deaths in Benghazi and covered it up.

You are so cynical, Hillary is awesome! She enabled the North Koreans to test a nuclear bomb withoutRead More consequences, turned Egypt into a hostile nation supporting the Moslem Brotherhood, supported the overthrow of Khadaffy in Libya, which is a paradise of Democracy now- take a romantic tour of Benghazi to prove it. Your nasty comments might bring on another fainting spell! "I declare, can a gentlemen get a lady a lemonade and a parasol"

Can anyone name even one of Hillary's accomplishments in the last four years? Other than maybe theRead More Benghazi debacle.
