LANCASTER – Authorities are seeking the public’s help to locate Antonio Cyprian, a 51-year-old man accused of shooting and killing a man in Lancaster last October.

The fatal shooting happened around 9:32 p.m. on Oct. 3, 2021, on the 500 block of East Avenue J-5, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

Deputies from the Lancaster station responded to a gunshot victim call and found a man inside the location suffering from a gunshot wound to the upper torso, according to a news release issued shortly after the incident. The victim, later identified as 32-year-old Darrell Jerome Hall, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Sheriff’s officials have released little information on the circumstances surrounding the fatal shooting. Detectives have not said why they identified Antonio Cyprian as the murder suspect or whether or not the two men knew each other.

Cyprian is described as black, about 5 feet 9 inches tall, and approximately 200 pounds. Anyone with information on his whereabouts is encouraged to contact detectives R. Lugo or L. Sanchez at the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500.

    I think I saw Antonio in a pharma ad. He was dressed up like a physician.

    I can’t even go to the grocery store without being concerned my vehicle is going to be stolen when I’m in the store.

    I am not helping the cops do anything. They are completely worthless.

    This valley has so much crime I’m left question the integrity of every realtor selling homes in the god forsaken place.

      Plus, anywhere you go your shadow is there for you to be scared of.

      Inconvenient facts: crime rates in the AV are pretty much average. If you aren’t involved in any illicit business the chances of you getting involved in any criminal activity are far less than your chances of being involved in a traffic accident…just like anywhere else.

        Tim Scott where do you get your “facts” from? All of the most recent crime data from FBI, Cal-DOJ, LASD, and various non-profit research sources (take your pick on sources) consistently show that Lancaster and Palmdale experience higher crime per capita than 89.1% of all US cities.

          When dealing with someone worth talking to I dig through the UCR. Since you are just a well known clown I am not gonna bother today.

      It is actually just four percent of the population.

        If you’re making stuff up, might as well be precise.
