On August 6, 2011, 25-year-old Lashawna Candies of Antioch, California, was fatally shot in a firefight near the 8700 block of B Street in East Oakland during the early hours of a Saturday. The chaotic exchange of gunfire also wounded another woman. The killing was one of many homicides in Oakland during 2011 and underscored the city’s violent year.

Investigators say progress has been limited in identifying those responsible and have appealed to the community for help. Few case details beyond the location, time, and that another woman was injured have been released.

If anyone knew Lashawna, witnessed the shooting, or has information that could help, please come forward to aid the investigation.
