A doctoral student and a soon-to-be dad were gunned down on the same South L.A. street where they grew up together.

Jose Antonio Flores Velazquez, 23, and Alfredo Carrera, 24, were childhood friends who each had a bright future.

Ramon Flores and Maria Velasquez recall the accomplishments of their 23-year-old son, Jose Flores Velasquez. Earlier in the week, he had given a talk on galaxy formations to a group of international researchers at UC Irvine, said James Bullock, dean of the university’s School of Physical Sciences. Carrera’s girlfriend, Marilyn Cuevas, 24, was expecting their first child, due next month, according to family members.

ALL LIVES MATTER!

ReyMohammed4 Such a waste. That's just sad.

They say never forget where you come from, however, sometimes we need too! This is a real tragedy... and only those that go through the struggle understand the impact of such tragedy.

I hope the killers are found and rehabilitated. They deserve a second chance at life

😭😭😭💔💔💔 Damn! Sooooooo sad! RIP.....

And guns aren't the problem... This is so maddeningly sad.

yashar The NRA and their GOP bootlickers continue to steal our future, one needless death at a time. No life to them is more important than the profit on the sale of even a single bullet.

yashar What a shame for these two young men, their family and friends. Another case of guns in the hands of people who don’t care about life.

I hope they find the killer and he spends the rest of his life in prison. How horrible.

yashar Tragic.

yashar I want to cry.

What a horrible thing. Life has no value to these people. Breaks my heart to see these lives shot down.

That’s awful and depressing news.

yashar My my 24 years, this is what I known. This is my home.

yashar Sad.

yashar White supremacists strike again, amirite?

Oh god

Some of the strictest gun laws in America. And the worst crime. Correlation or causation?
