Charles Leslie Stamps, 22, was fatally shot on March 22, 2011, while standing on the porch of a residence in East Oakland. The shooting happened on the 6100 block of Harmon Avenue, where Stamps lived; a 35-year-old visitor from San Francisco was also killed in the same attack.

Their deaths were part of a violent year for Oakland, which recorded more than 100 homicides in 2011, most involving guns and occurring in economically disadvantaged neighborhoods. Investigators struggled with cases like this in part because many witnesses were reluctant to come forward, a concern highlighted by community leaders and police urging cooperation to help solve these crimes.

If anyone has information about the March 22, 2011, shooting on Harmon Avenue or knew Charles Stamps, please share what you remember.
