Sook Mi Oh, 55, was shot and killed during a robbery at the Hot Stop convenience store on Williams Road in Salinas on August 15, 2014. Two masked men entered, demanded money and, when the employee could not open the register quickly enough, one of the robbers shot Oh, who was standing near the employee. She was later pronounced dead at a hospital.

Surveillance footage released by police showed two suspects: a taller man about six feet tall who used a red box cutter and appeared to injure his right hand during the attack, and a shorter man about five feet four inches tall who carried a revolver. The robbers fled without taking any money. The Salinas Police Department released the video to the public and followed up on tips generated by the community; the victim’s family established a reward fund to encourage information leading to an arrest and conviction.

Anyone who knew Sook Mi Oh or who recognizes the men in the surveillance footage is asked to come forward with information.
