Eric Davis, 28, was shot and killed on November 28, 2021, in Oakland, California, after confronting people breaking into vehicles near Lake Merritt. Davis had discovered his own car had been broken into and then saw suspects attacking another vehicle; a passenger in a black Toyota RAV4 shot him. The slaying was counted as Oakland’s 127th homicide of 2021.

Davis had been living in Oakland for several years and was remembered by family as a man of faith who cared for others and was active in his community. The family has urged the public to come forward with information. The Oakland Police Department identified the suspect vehicle as a black Toyota RAV4, released images of it, and — along with Crime Stoppers — offered up to a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. No arrests have been announced.

Anyone with information about the shooting or the black Toyota RAV4 is asked to contact the investigators. What leads might help bring the people responsible to justice?
