Arniska Lofton, 27, was killed in a drive-by shooting outside the Madison Market at Madison and Park streets in Stockton on March 17, 2015. Witnesses said a dark-colored SUV drove by and up to 40 gunshots were heard; at least one occupant fired into the crowd. Lofton was found fatally shot on the sidewalk. Two others, Aliyah Taylor, 20, and Kabin Kennebrew, 23, were also shot and later died at the hospital. Four men, aged 24, 25, 32, and 38, were wounded but survived.

Stockton police described the shooting as gang-related given the location’s history; some community members and friends disputed that Lofton and the other victims had gang ties. Police interviewed numerous witnesses and community members but did not release a shooter description and no arrests were announced immediately after the attack. A memorial appeared outside the Madison Market where people left notes and candles.

If anyone was at Madison and Park that evening or has information about the dark-colored SUV or the occupants, please share what is known.
