Patrick Sanyeah, 34, was found bleeding in the parking lot of the Stadium Promenade complex in Orange, California, between a Chili’s restaurant and a movie theater on May 12, 2017. He died at a nearby hospital from a gunshot wound to the lower torso. The city reported this as Orange’s first homicide of the year.

Sanyeah was born in Liberia and moved to the United States at 17. His family says he had endured previous tragedy, including the 2014 death of his four-year-old son, Patrick Jr., in a Southwest Philadelphia fire that killed three other children. Family members described Sanyeah as protective, caring, and loving.

Investigators arrested Trevor Lee Brockington, 29, of Riverside and charged him with murder; bail was set at $1 million. Police said the motive remained unclear and that officers could not determine why Sanyeah was in Orange. At a preliminary hearing, it was reported Sanyeah and a companion had met Brockington to buy marijuana and pills and that witnesses gave conflicting accounts about whether an argument preceded the shooting.

Does anyone have information about Sanyeah’s movements in Orange that day or about the meeting reported in the preliminary hearing?
