Rachel Green, 19, was shot and killed on June 23, 2010, during a vigil in a West Oakland parking lot held to mourn another young person killed two days earlier. Gunmen opened fire on the gathered crowd; Rachel died and five others were wounded. Her death was recorded among Oakland’s 94 homicides in 2010.

The community marked Rachel’s life at a ceremony at St. Columba Catholic Church, where the names of that year’s homicide victims were read and a white wooden cross placed in the church’s front yard for each person lost. Family, religious leaders, and local officials attended, and those who knew her remembered Rachel as bright, loving, and full of promise.

If anyone attended that vigil or has information about the shooting, please share what you know.
