"Individuals within that vehicle flagged down a Falck ambulance that was in the area," said Oakland Deputy Police Chief Drennon Lindsey. "The occupants of that vehicle pulled a male juvenile from the vehicle, and then drove off.""This is the ultimate horrible crime and situation that you could fathom for a young person," Lindsey said.
"It's tragic. It's tragic for this young man, a life full of potential," Reid said. "This violence we are experiencing from every corner of our city, and especially here in East Oakland, it has to stop. We've got to do more and not less to keep our children, to keep our families safe in this city."
