Robert Tuck III, 33, was fatally shot on February 15, 2019, at a homeless camp on the 2500 block of Wood Street in West Oakland. A nearby surveillance camera recorded the shooting. Police say Tuck and the shooter, identified as 25-year-old Frank Kennedy, did not know each other before an argument at the camp escalated and Kennedy shot Tuck.

After the shooting Kennedy attempted to alter his appearance by cutting off his dreadlocks and putting them in a bag, but was arrested at the same camp when officers served a search warrant and found him in the tent where he lived. Kennedy was held at Santa Rita Jail in Dublin following his arrest. The case later proceeded through the Alameda County courts, where Kennedy pleaded no contest to manslaughter and received an 18-year state prison sentence; murder and gun charges were dismissed as part of the agreement.

If anyone has information about Robert Tuck III, his movements in West Oakland, or the events at the Wood Street camp that night, please share what you know.
