Noel Santillan, 36, was found dead in the early hours of September 30, 2020, in the 2000 block of Wood Street in West Oakland. He had suffered multiple gunshot wounds, and investigators believe he was killed elsewhere in Oakland before his body was brought to that West Oakland location.

Santillan’s death was counted as Oakland’s 79th homicide for 2020, a total that surpassed the city’s total for the previous year. The Oakland Police Department opened an active investigation and asked the public for help, with a reward of up to $10,000 offered for tips that could lead to an arrest.

If anyone has information about Noel Santillan’s movements on or before September 30, 2020, or about activity on Wood Street that night, please share what you know with investigators.
