Aristeo Zambrano, 68, was shot and killed at his business, Bay City Alternators, on International Boulevard near 88th Avenue in Oakland on February 3, 2024. The shooting happened shortly before noon and Zambrano was pronounced dead at the scene. He had immigrated from Michoacán, Mexico, in the 1970s, worked with Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers, and ran the auto repair shop for more than 30 years, becoming a respected community figure.

His family is survived by three daughters and six grandchildren and had previously expressed concern for his safety because of rising crime in the area. The killing was recorded as Oakland’s tenth homicide of 2024 and sparked community rallies demanding action and commemorating his work as a labor advocate and business owner.

Who in the community might have seen anything around Bay City Alternators that morning or has information about the shooting?
