Ranisha Monique Raven was 19 when she was killed in a shooting on August 1, 2015, in San Francisco’s Western Addition neighborhood. The shooting happened around 11 p.m. near Buchanan and Eddy Streets; Raven was one of three people struck that night. A 16-year-old girl and a 30-year-old man were wounded and survived, while Ranisha was taken to San Francisco General Hospital and pronounced dead shortly afterward.

The attack came amid local discussion about renovating the Buchanan Street Mall, a green space and playground area long affected by gang activity and drug problems. Police did not immediately identify suspects and no arrests had been reported; the San Francisco Police Department asked community members for any information that could lead to an arrest. Ranisha’s death was counted as the city’s 29th homicide of 2015.

Did anyone in the Western Addition area hear or see something that night that could help bring answers?
