Jesús Alfonso Huerta Escoboza (January 4, 1966 – January 11, 2020), better known as La Parka, was a Mexican luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler, who worked for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion AAA from the mid-1990s until 2019. On January 11, 2020, Huerta died from complications arising from injuries that he sustained from a botched move during an October 2019 match.
Escoboza was not the first wrestler to use the ring name "La Parka", Adolfo Tapia was the original La Parka but did not own either the name or the character. In the late 1990s, Escoboza was billed as La Parka Jr. and then in 2003 he became the "official" La Parka while Tapia was forced to stop using the name and instead became known as L.A. Park. On March 22, 2025, AAA introduced a third La Parka portrayed by Brazo de Oro Jr.
In 2020, he was posthumously inducted into the AAA Hall of Fame.
