Alfred Nunnery Sr., 38, was shot and killed on January 29, 2015, around 9:05 p.m. outside Vernon Market at 3210 Harrison Street near Pearl Street in Oakland’s Adams Point neighborhood. Nunnery, an Oakland resident, was pronounced dead at the scene.

An 18-year-old acquaintance, Luis Alfaro, was arrested and charged with murder. Police say Alfaro surrendered after being identified as a suspect. Surveillance video from the convenience store shows a confrontation inside that escalated outside; reports say Alfaro arrived and began shooting almost immediately. Alfaro’s lawyer has argued self-defense, contending Nunnery pointed a gun at Alfaro, while the judge noted potential self-defense issues but set bail at $5 million and said a jury must decide intent.

Nunnery’s past includes a 2006 no-contest plea to carjacking and making criminal threats involving his ex-girlfriend and their infant son. Who has additional information about the confrontation that night or about either man’s activities in Adams Point?
