Man and woman killed, another injured in East Oakland shooting

Police are investigating a weekend shooting in East Oakland that left two people dead and another injured, just blocks away from a local police station.

Around the corner on 64th Avenue, officers found a third victim, a woman, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities are investigating what led up to the shooting.

Community reacts

What they're saying:

The violence has shaken longtime residents, including Melvina Hardaway, who has lived in the neighborhood for more than 50 years.

"Maybe more police around. I think that’s what we need," Hardaway said, adding that she now carries a pocket knife and stays constantly aware of her surroundings.

Crime trends

By the numbers:

The shooting comes as the Oakland Police Department reports a drop in violent crime.

Department data shows homicides are down 39% in the first three months of 2026 compared with the same period last year.

Still, some residents remain skeptical.

Alfredo Romero, a lifelong East Oakland resident, expressed frustration with the response to crime.

"Criminals just aren’t cracked down upon," Romero said. "Every elected leader we’ve had so far is just [talk], and no one really delivers."
