The cloudless, sunny day belied the tragic reason for the gathering.

Last Wednesday, Marvin Boomer and his partner Nina Woodruff went for an evening walk, strolling along E. 21st Street in their Oakland neighborhood. As they neared 12th Avenue, Woodruff started feeling nervous. Police sirens were blaring and headed their way. She could “feel the energy,” she told Boomer. She thought they should walk up the stairs of a house on the corner to gain some distance from the street. What happened next is a blur.
