Shooting in La Salina


Please help. I am desperately seeking information on a shooting of a US citizen last night in La Salina or Ensenada. Any information is greatly appreciated.

The last three paragraphs of this article in El Vigia say that an American was killed in La Salina by a bullet to the head yesterday. The motive is believed to be robbery. A spent shell was found in the area. The victim had not yet been identified.

La Salina Shhoting


Yes, its true, Larry Oliver was killed Friday evening in front of his home in La Salina. No one saw what we belive was a shooting but those who discovered him couldn't really tell but it appears so. A person was seen running from the scene and jumped a wall. His family has been notified. Larry is a long time part time resident of La Salina who moved here permanently about two months ago. Needless to say all of are shocked at what happened.

Just got an email from my Father and he had told me what LaSalinaGary had said. This happened in a little house next to our lot in the gated part north of the Cantina. Lots of speculation it sounds like, but no matter the reason a man has died needlessly. Prayers and condolences to the Oliver family.

Thank you all for posting information. This is very sad and tragic news. 'Grant' is my sister and when she called last night to tell me about Larry, I suggested she post here to see if anyone knew anything. She and Larry have known each other since high school.

I knew Larry growing up and, as the 'kid who always tagged along', I remember him as always being kind to me.

My heartfelt condolences to Larry's family and friends.




Forget about the danger and think of the fun.

Nice thought, Pancho. Perhaps, at this time, that should be up to the family.

Knew Larry for about 40 years


He was a wonderful guy who would not hurt a flea... So sorry for his family.

Sad that he really didn't get to live his dream for very long.

A dear friend


I want to celebrate Larry Oliver's life. He was a beloved brother for several years. Words cannot be conveyed at a time like this. Larry was one of the best. God bless you and your family.
