Robert Kuhl, 47, of Hayward was fatally shot on June 21, 2022, at a homeless camp in West Oakland. The shooting happened around 1:58 p.m. in the 3400 block of Wood Street, a location noted for a sprawling encampment where both fatal and non-fatal shootings have occurred in recent years. Kuhl, a frequent visitor to the camp, was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 2:45 p.m.

The Oakland Police Department and the Alameda County Coroner’s Bureau handled the response, and OPD is seeking public tips, offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to an arrest. The transient population at the camp and a lack of witnesses have been cited as challenges in the investigation.

Does anyone who was in the Wood Street encampment area that day or who knew Robert have information that could help the investigation?
