Steven Crider was 16 when he was shot and killed during an attempted burglary on Arcade Boulevard in Sacramento on May 4, 2014. Police say Steven and a 14-year-old friend, Michael Sambrano, were shot by the homeowner’s brother after entering the house. The homeowner, a widow, had reported two earlier break-ins on April 20 and April 29 and had her brother staying with her for protection.

Steven’s mother, Sandy Crider, described him as the youngest of eight children and said he had a place to stay with his sister; the family believes he lied about his whereabouts to spend time with his girlfriend. No arrests or charges were filed against the homeowner’s brother; authorities cited California law that permits deadly force when a person fears for their life in defending their home.

Does anyone have information about Steven’s movements in the days before May 4 or about the earlier break-ins on that Arcade Boulevard address?
