Devani Aleman Sanchez, 22, of Oakland was shot during an attempted robbery near Lake Merritt on November 11, 2021, around 12:50 a.m. She had been standing outside a vehicle on Lakeshore Avenue when at least one person approached and tried to rob her at gunpoint. Sanchez was wounded in the confrontation and died at a hospital on November 13, 2021; her death was listed as the city’s 120th homicide that year.

Investigators later arrested two men, Lashawn Price, 33, of Stockton, and Torrin Dupclay, 32, of Crockett. Both were charged by the Alameda County District Attorney with multiple counts including murder and robbery. Price is accused of personally and intentionally firing the weapon that killed Sanchez. Authorities linked the two suspects to a string of armed robberies in Oakland and said Price was found with a loaded handgun and an assault weapon that investigators tied to other robberies.

Devani’s family remembered her as a devoted mother and caring person. Does anyone have information about Sanchez’s activities that night or saw anything near Lakeshore Avenue around 12:50 a.m. on November 11, 2021?
