Davila was shot while walking with a friend in the 1100 block of West Pine Street by a man driving a white Suburban, said police Cpl Anthony Bertagna.
The driver asked the boys about their gang affiliation, he said. After the boy and his friend shouted their gang affiliation the driver shot Davila in the head and tried to chase down his friend, but missed twice and drove off.
Davila's death marks the third gang-related homicide in Santa Ana this year. The city has been struggling with a rash of gang-related violence this month, including a homicide last weekend.
