Eric Bobele was a 56-year-old Black/African American man who was fatally shot in Reno, Nevada, on the evening of October 28, 2018. Local law enforcement investigated the shooting and identified a suspect, a Reno man named Davis, who was arrested and charged in connection with the killing.

The case went to trial, where evidence was presented and a guilty verdict was reached. Davis was later sentenced to life in prison for his role in Bobele’s death.

The conviction resolved the criminal case, but the community’s loss remains.
