Donta Harkins, a 30-year-old Oakland resident, was fatally shot on June 26, 2015. He was found with gunshot wounds in the 3900 block of Martin Luther King Jr. Way and did not survive despite emergency response efforts.

Harkins was one of 83 homicide victims recorded in Oakland in 2015, a year marked by high levels of violence across multiple neighborhoods. Authorities say many cases from that year remain unsolved, often because of a lack of witnesses or other crucial evidence. The community held memorials, including gatherings at St. Columba Catholic Church, to honor victims and call for collective action to reduce violence.

If anyone knew Donta Harkins or witnessed the shooting on June 26, 2015, please come forward with information.
