Deshawn Brown, 17, of Oakland was shot and killed on June 18, 2016, around 10 p.m. in the 2100 block of Harrington Avenue. The killing occurred during a surge of violence in that area and was described as part of a broader pattern of youth gun violence affecting Oakland at the time.

Investigators determined Brown was a victim of gun violence. The Oakland Police Department has sought help from the public and offered rewards for tips leading to arrests, but the case remains unsolved. Family and community members continue to grieve and press for answers amid reports of few witnesses and difficulties gathering evidence.

Does anyone have information about that night on Harrington Avenue or knew Deshawn and can help investigators with this case?
