Harry Lawrence, 43, of Oakland was shot on the morning of January 11, 2022, in a convenience store parking lot at Seventh and Center streets across from the West Oakland BART Station. The shooting occurred around 11:08 a.m.; he was taken to a nearby hospital and died the next day. Lawrence lived elsewhere in Oakland but had relatives in the area, which may explain why he was there.

Authorities have not determined whether the gunfire came from a passing vehicle or from someone who confronted Lawrence in the parking lot, and no arrests had been made. The Oakland Police Department is investigating and, together with Crime Stoppers of Oakland, offered up to a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. The case was one of the city’s homicides in 2022 and remains open.

Did anyone see activity in the Seventh and Center streets parking lot on the morning of January 11, 2022, or have information that could help solve this case?
