On January 17, 2023, at about 10:45 a.m., Antioch police responded to multiple calls about a shooting at The Spot Liquor Store in the Sycamore Square shopping center, 1108 Sycamore Drive. Officers found 25-year-old Pittsburg resident Emani Flenoid in the parking lot with a gunshot wound; he was taken to a local hospital and pronounced dead. Investigators say a dispute occurred between Flenoid and the suspect before the shooting, and the suspect fled the scene after firing.

Detectives identified 19-year-old Corey Hill of Antioch as the suspect. Hill was arrested in Orinda on unrelated charges and later linked to Flenoid’s homicide. On February 15, 2023, the Contra Costa County District Attorney charged Hill with murder with enhancements for use of a firearm and he was held at the Martinez Detention Facility with bail set at two million dollars.

If anyone witnessed the shooting or has information about the dispute that preceded it, please share what is known with investigators.
