Jacob Malik Frierson, 19, was shot and killed on December 20, 2022, around 11:20 a.m. on the 3800 block of Haywood Street in the Del Paso Heights neighborhood of Sacramento. Officers responding to a reported shooting found him with at least one gunshot wound; he was given first aid, taken to a hospital and later pronounced dead. The Sacramento County Coroner identified him as Jacob Malik Frierson.

Investigators determined his death was a homicide. Authorities later identified 47-year-old Craig Simpson as the suspected gunman; Simpson was located and arrested in Oklahoma City with assistance from the FBI and the Oklahoma City Police Department and is to be transported to Sacramento to face a homicide charge. Officials have not disclosed a motive or the nature of any relationship between Frierson and Simpson.

Jacob was remembered by family and community members as kind, loving and fond of basketball; a fundraiser was organized to help his family with funeral expenses. Does anyone have information about Jacob, his movements that morning, or the circumstances on Haywood Street that could help the investigation?
