Following actor Johnny Wactor’s tragic death in May, the Los Angeles Police Department has released photos of three suspects in the case of his murder.

The images were released and show three individuals wearing hooded sweatshirts. The shooter has a tattoo above his left eye and on his right cheek, according to police.

No other information about the suspects or the shooting is known. The 37-year-old General Hospital actor was killed in downtown Los Angeles after stopping by a group of men who he thought were working on a car. One of the suspects allegedly pulled out a gun and showed Wactor before driving off in the stolen vehicle.

Wactor was accompanied by his friend and coworker Anita Joy, who held him while they awaited help.

Los Angeles City Councilman Kevin de León urged anyone with information about the incident to come forward during a news conference with the actor’s family and friends.

“Catalytic converter thefts are often seen as petty of victimless crime, not what happened to Johnny,” he said. “This tragic incident underscores just how quickly such acts can escalate into deadly violence.”

In addition to General Hospital, Wactor was also known for his roles in Criminal Minds and Siberia.
