He is considered armed and dangerous.
Nosic was killed in the parking lot of the Golden Corral restaurant on the 17600 block of Castleton Street near the 60 Freeway, along a row of chain restaurants. She had been working at the restaurant for three weeks as a baker trainee, according to the "Los Angeles Times."
