Brandon Gudino was 21 when he was shot and killed on June 19, 2015, during a confrontation with a security guard in the parking lot of an East Oakland convenience store. Authorities describe the encounter as a violent altercation; the guard shot Gudino and said he acted in self-defense, claiming Gudino posed an imminent threat. Gudino’s family disputes that account, alleging excessive force and calling for a full investigation.

The family filed a lawsuit against the security company and the guard, and law enforcement continued to investigate and interview witnesses. Little else about the confrontation has been publicly detailed.

If anyone witnessed the confrontation or has information about what led up to the shooting, please share what is known.
