Ahmad Fawad Yusufi, a 31-year-old Afghan refugee who came to the United States with his family in 2018 after serving as a translator for U.S. troops, was killed on November 28, 2021, in San Francisco. Yusufi was working as a driver for ride-share services when he and a passenger were parked near Potrero Avenue and Cesar Chavez Street and were confronted by 39-year-old Clifford Stokes of Oakland. Stokes demanded money at gunpoint and, as Yusufi tried to comply, shot him in the heart; Yusufi died at the scene.

Stokes fled but was arrested in Oakland on December 16, 2021, and charged with first-degree murder, robbery, attempted robbery, shooting into an occupied vehicle, and being a felon in possession of a firearm.

Anyone who knew Yusufi, his routes as a driver, or who has information about the attack is asked to come forward.
