Josiah Shabazz Lightfoot, an 18-year-old San Francisco resident and 2016 graduate of Balboa High School who was attending San Francisco City College, was shot and killed on January 20, 2017. The shooting occurred at about 4:35 p.m. at the intersection of Plymouth Avenue and Broad Street in the Ocean View neighborhood. Reports describe him as an innocent victim caught in a violent incident; police did not provide details about suspects or motive immediately after the shooting.

No arrests were announced in the days after the homicide, and investigators said a lack of witnesses and concrete evidence made identifying a perpetrator difficult. Family and friends publicly expressed grief, and the San Francisco Police Department urged anyone with information to come forward as the investigation continued. Does anyone have information about Josiah, his movements that afternoon, or the Ocean View area on January 20, 2017?
