Garland Scott, 21, was shot and killed in Hayward, California, shortly after midnight on January 13, 2020. Police responded to reports of gunfire in the 22000 block of Alice Street around 12:30 AM and found Scott with gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and later pronounced dead. The Alameda County Coroner’s Office confirmed his identity.

Investigators say Scott was outside when an unknown suspect or suspects fired, then fled the scene. No arrests have been announced. This was the city’s second homicide within 24 hours, but police said there is no evidence linking Scott’s killing to the earlier shooting that fatally wounded 19-year-old Farrarri Johnson at an Airbnb party. The Hayward Police Department is asking anyone with information to contact Detective Ryan Sprague.

Can anyone who was in the Alice Street area that night or who knew Garland provide information to investigators?
