Thursday night after the killing on the 1400 block of Center Street in West Oakland.
Police say he was spotted walking down a street with a gun in his hand shortly before 38-year-old Ronald Sanders was killed. Hobdy then allegedly opened fire on a vehicle with two firefighters inside. They weren't hurt. Police arrested Hobdy about an hour later when he walked into a nearby business. Hobdy, who has a prior manslaughter conviction, was arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder.
