The shooting death of Auxiliary Bishop David O'Connell, who served as a priest and bishop in L.A. County for nearly half a century, is being investigated as a homicide.

The shooting death of Los Angeles Auxiliary Bishop David O'Connell — known as a “peacemaker” — is being investigated as a homicide, sheriff’s officials said Sunday.

He had suffered a gunshot wound and paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene, sheriff’s officials said.“It is a shock, and I have no words to express my sadness,” Archbishop José H. Gómez of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles said in a statement. “As a priest and later a bishop here in Los Angeles for 45 years, Bishop Dave was a man of deep prayer who had a great love for our blessed mother.

“He didn’t hold back his words. He was well spoken,” Flores said. “He would take the time. He was very humble. He was never too busy.” For 14 years, O’Connell was pastor at St. Frances X. Cabrini, in South Los Angeles, and became pastor of nearby Ascension, the Times reported in 2002. This meant overseeing not only two congregations of roughly 4,000 families each, but also two schools that between them serve about 500 pupils in kindergarten through eighth grade.
