Dominic Anderson, 25, was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting on June 13, 2014, in San Francisco’s Mission District. The shooting occurred about 9:15 a.m. at the intersection of 15th and Mission Streets while Anderson was sitting in his parked vehicle; he was struck in the torso and died after being taken to San Francisco General Hospital.

Investigators identified Justin Howard as the primary suspect. Witnesses described Howard’s distinctive purple car, and surveillance footage later showed a matching vehicle crossing the Bay Bridge toll plaza shortly before the shooting. Howard reportedly told Oakland police his car had been stolen just hours after the incident. He was arrested on July 9, 2014, at a residence in Richmond and charged with first-degree murder with a firearm enhancement. At trial the defense challenged inconsistencies in witness descriptions.

Questions remain about the sequence of events leading up to the shooting and about any additional witnesses who might have seen the purple car that morning. If anyone has information about Dominic Anderson, the purple car, or the events at 15th and Mission on June 13, 2014, please come forward.
