William Chavis, 35, was killed in a drive-by shooting on October 25, 2016, in East Oakland, California. The shooting happened in the early morning and occurred amid several violent incidents in the area that night; multiple people were injured and Chavis was the lone fatality reported from that spree.

Police opened an investigation but faced difficulties developing substantial leads, and no immediate arrests were made. The killing was one of several that contributed to Oakland’s rising homicide total in 2016.

If anyone knew William, witnessed the shooting, or has information that could help the investigation, please come forward to the Oakland authorities.
