On the afternoon of July 14, 2023, 24-year-old Trevon Richardson of Antioch was fatally shot during an ambush at the Lido Square Apartment Complex on Crestview Drive in Pittsburg, California. Richardson and a 21-year-old friend were pulling out of a parking space when multiple shooters riddled their vehicle; Richardson was struck in the head and killed instantly. The driver was shot three times, managed to drive to the Pittsburg Police Department parking lot to summon help, and survived in serious but stable condition.

Investigators determined the attack was not random but an ambush orchestrated by the Midtown street gang based at the Lido Square apartments. Court records say gang members spotted the intended target at a barbecue, changed clothes, donned ski masks, and carried out the shooting. A multiagency sweep on September 11, 2023, produced 13 arrests and charges against nine people, including four named adults charged in the homicide: Deavion Young, Larry Lee Major III, Christopher Perez, and Marcolino Ortega; two others, Joseph Ramey and Melissa Ramey, faced accessory charges.

In May 2026, jurors convicted Larry Lee Major III and Deavion Young of murder with the special circumstance of lying in wait for their roles in the ambush; both face life without parole.

Did anyone at Lido Square see or hear anything that afternoon that could add details about how the attack was planned or carried out?
