Justin Bell was found fatally shot on December 3, 2018, in a vacant building in an unincorporated part of Hayward, California. Officers responded after reports of gunfire on the 22000 block of Maple Court and discovered the 23-year-old dead at the scene.

Friends and family said Justin had recently aged out of the foster care system and described him as outgoing and cheerful. Despite an investigation, no arrests have been announced and no motive has been determined.

Anyone with information about Justin’s death or who was in the Maple Court area that night is asked to come forward.
