Karin Dalton, 43, was killed on February 2, 2022, in Oroville, California, when a gunman opened fire on a Greyhound bus parked outside an ampm at Oro Dam Boulevard and Feather River Boulevard. She was the only person killed in the attack; several others were wounded. Karin had been traveling with her two children, 11-year-old Audrina and 14-year-old Liam, en route down the west coast to visit her eldest son in New Mexico.

The shooter was identified as 21-year-old Asaahdi Coleman, who was arrested shortly after the incident and charged with murder and attempted murder. At his initial court appearance he refused to leave his jail cell, delaying proceedings; a public defender was assigned and another court date set. The Butte County District Attorney stated Coleman could face a sentence of 148 years to life if convicted.

Karin’s family described her difficult childhood, including periods living in homeless shelters, and said she was adventurous and devoted to giving her children a better life. Her aunt Susan Dalton spoke about the family’s grief and the challenges now facing Karin’s children.

If anyone was on that Greyhound bus or has information about the shooting, please come forward with what you know.
