Leslie Garcia, 19, was killed in a drive-by shooting on April 17, 2015, on the 1600 block of 89th Avenue in East Oakland. The shooting happened at about 10:25 p.m.; Garcia was taken to a hospital but died of her wounds. No motive was clear at the time, and police did not immediately identify suspects.

Her death came during a particularly violent period in Oakland and was one of several homicides that underscored ongoing gun violence and low clearance rates for such crimes in the city. Investigators appealed to the public for information and offered a reward for leads during the initial inquiry.

Did anyone in East Oakland on April 17, 2015, see or hear anything that could help bring answers in this case?
