The Los Angeles Police Department has released surveillance photos of the suspects wanted for gunning down “General Hospital” actor Johnny Wactor on the streets of the City of Angels — as well as the alleged killers’ getaway vehicle.
Wactor, 37, was walking back to his car after a late-night shift as a bartender in downtown Los Angeles when he encountered three men who had lifted the vehicle with a floor jack and were trying to steal his catalytic converter.

The images released by the LAPD show two of the suspects in light-colored hooded sweatshirts and one man wearing a black hoodie. No physical description of the suspects was offered besides a tattoo “Suspect 1” has above his left eye and on his right cheek.
Police said the shooting happened in the 1200 block of Hope Street in downtown Los Angeles around 3:25 a.m.
Wactor was in 164 episodes of the long-running soap opera from 2020 to 2022. He also appeared on shows like HBO’s “Westworld,” “NCIS,” and “Criminal Minds.”
