Tragedy struck in East Oakland on Friday night as a 27-year-old man from Stockton lost his life and a woman was injured in a shooting. The incident occurred at around 9:30 PM on Edwards Avenue, a residential area just off Interstate 580 and near Burkhalter Park. The two victims were sitting inside a parked car when shots were fired at them from outside the vehicle. They were quickly rushed to a nearby hospital, but sadly, the man passed away at 10:22 PM.
The perpetrator of the crime fled the scene before law enforcement could arrive. As of now, the man's identity has not been disclosed as his family is yet to be notified. The woman, who is from Sacramento, sustained minor injuries from shards of glass. The police have not revealed any details about the relationship between the two victims or why they were in Oakland.
No information about the suspect or their motive has been made public. This unfortunate incident adds to a string of recent crimes in the East Bay city, with this being the 82nd homicide investigated this year. Sadly, this is also the second incident in just two days, following the shooting death of a 48-year-old man near 11th Avenue and Foothill Boulevard on Thursday.
Last year, the police had to investigate 125 homicides in Oakland, a number that is deeply concerning.
