Mustafa Albowyha was 24 when he was fatally shot on the night of October 10, 2015, in Oakland’s Fruitvale District. He and his 22-year-old cousin, Mohamed Sbeih, were both standing on a street corner near the 3600 block of Foothill Boulevard when a gunman approached on foot, opened fire, and fled the scene. Both men were killed.

Neither Albowyha nor his cousin were residents of the neighborhood where they were shot, and it is unclear why they were there. The assailant’s identity and the motive remain undetermined, and law enforcement had not made any immediate arrests while struggling to develop additional leads.

Does anyone have information about why the two men were in the Fruitvale area that night or who might have been responsible?
