Fourth killing this weekend

A man was shot and killed in East Oakland last night, the 12th murder in Oakland this year and the fourth since Thursday.

The Oakland PD had unwritten rules when it came to avoiding confrontation with members of Your Black Muslim Bakery, a retired officer testified in the trial of Richard Lewis. The Chauncey Bailey Project has the story.

The Oakland Tech girls basketball team and the Castlemont boys each pulled upsets yesterday to bring home Oakland Athletic League titles. Check Oakland North later today for a slideshow of the games.

Wow lots of crime in Oakland. Need to find a leader that can fix this problem not just talk about it. Time for new leadership.
