Jermaine Kennedy, 19, was fatally shot on October 24, 2022, around 1:30 p.m. on 96th Avenue near International Boulevard in East Oakland. Surveillance footage shows Kennedy walking with another person later identified as 20-year-old Amir Haynes of San Francisco; witnesses later picked Haynes out of a lineup and he was seen running to a car and leaving the scene after the shooting.

Haynes surrendered on October 29, 2022, after a judge issued an arrest warrant. He was charged with Kennedy’s murder on November 2, 2022, and is being held in Santa Rita Jail without bail awaiting a court appearance to enter a plea. The motive for the shooting has not been determined; Haynes declined to speak with detectives and asked for an attorney.

If anyone saw Kennedy or the events on 96th Avenue that afternoon, or has information about what led up to the shooting, please come forward.
