LANCASTER – Authorities are seeking the public’s assistance in locating a 53-year-old man suspected of murder.

According to the Sheriff’s Information Bureau, homicide investigators identified Antonio Cyprian as the suspect who shot to death 32-year-old Darrell Jerome Hall on Oct. 3, 2021, on the 500 block of East Avenue J-5 in Lancaster.

Sheriff’s officials have released little information on the circumstances surrounding the fatal shooting. Detectives have not said why they identified Cyprian as the murder suspect or whether or not the two men knew each other. Cyprian is described as a 5-foot-9-inch tall Black man weighing 200 pounds with a bald head and brown eyes.

Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Cyprian is encouraged to contact Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau Detective R. Lugo or Detective L. Sanchez at 323-890-5500. Tipsters who prefer to remain anonymous can call Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477.

    Team Wrecks will find him and keep us safe. He’s most likely in East Lancaster though and Wrecks avoids doing anything for, with or in East Lancaster.

      That was my thought too, but then I remembered they also like to hide out in Victorville or California City.
