The Alameda man was a fugitive for nearly two months until his arrest on Oct. 16.
OAKLAND — Police were reviewing footage from a security camera that depicted a triple-shooting suspect fleeing to a vehicle and making his getaway.
Police were able to confirm that this triple murder suspect had, in fact, called in a Lyft to pick him up from what police say nearly became a homicide scene. And he allegedly used his own account too. After reviewing records from the rideshare company, police obtained an arrest warrant for 23-year-old Zaire Campbell on attempted murder charges.
Campbell allegedly shot two 16-year-old boys and a 23-year-old man on the 700 block of Center Street near West Oakland BART a little before 11 a.m. on Aug. 5. After allegedly firing a pistol at them, Campbell reportedly ran to a nearby barber college and went inside. Then he left to meet his Lyft driver, who brought him to his Alameda home, police say.
