Richard Abelino Benavidez Ponce was 20 when he was fatally shot on July 7, 2019, in San Francisco’s Yerba Buena neighborhood. Officers found him on the sidewalk near Bonifacio Street and Mabini Street with an apparent gunshot wound; medics pronounced him dead at the scene.

Investigators identified a primary suspect as 21-year-old Patrick Jackson of Oakland. Jackson was arrested on September 11, 2019, in San Leandro and booked into the San Francisco County Jail on suspicion of murder and robbery. The case has drawn attention to gun violence and its effects on Ponce’s family and the Dos Palos community, which has offered condolences and support.

Does anyone have information about Ponce’s movements in San Francisco on July 7, 2019, or saw anything in the Bonifacio and Mabini area that day?
