Deante Antonio Miller, 19, was shot and killed on November 28, 2016, in Oakland, California. The shootings occurred about 10:15 a.m. on the 700 block of 39th Street near West Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Way. Miller and a close friend, 19-year-old Roderick Trevon Godfrey, were both struck multiple times; one died at the scene and the other was taken to a hospital and later died from his wounds.

Both young men grew up in West Oakland and had been students at McClymonds High School. Godfrey had been involved in community conversations about gun violence earlier that year; his father described him as a good kid. Authorities did not immediately release a suspect or a motive, did not confirm victim identities in initial statements, and no arrests were reported, leaving the case unresolved as one of Oakland’s homicides that year.

If anyone remembers the area around 39th Street that morning or has information about these shootings, please share what is known.
