Winnetka Boy, 17, Shot To Death After High School Soccer Game

LOS ANGELES (CBS) — Authorities are investigating the shooting death of a 17-year-old old El Camino Real High School student.

Francisco Rodriguez, 17, was shot to death Wednesday night in front of his home on Cozycroft Avenue in Winnetka.

A soccer teammate had just dropped the goalie off at his house after a game when a female reportedly came to the house and asked Rodriguez to come outside.

He was then shot three times before the suspect or suspects fled.

Authorities, who have not released a suspect or vehicle description, are asking for the public's help in finding Rodriguez's killer.

Teammates say there are no known rivalries with the Taft High School soccer team, which they tied during Wednesday night's match.

"I loved him. I truly loved him. Got to know him… he was a great kid. He meant well, " Ian Kogan, the team's coach, told CBS2.
