On March 3, 2024, 34-year-old Sacramento resident Rama Alsarraj was found dead from a gunshot wound inside her home on Ventura Street. Sacramento police responded to a welfare check at the residence after hearing gunshots, established a perimeter, and discovered Alsarraj; she was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators quickly identified 32-year-old Dominique Broadt as the primary suspect; the two were reportedly in a romantic relationship and the death was believed to have resulted from a domestic violence incident. Broadt was described as 6 feet 2 inches, about 150 pounds, with brown hair and green eyes, and was considered armed and dangerous while sought by authorities.

The search for Broadt ended on April 17, 2024, in West Oakland, where Sacramento and Oakland officers located him at a 16th Street residence. Broadt emerged holding a firearm and Oakland officers fired; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The officers involved were placed on paid administrative leave and the incident remains under investigation.
