"He's the baby," Jackie Clark said looking at photos of her nephew in the the East Oakland home where she raised him along with her own son.Now she's struggling to make sense of why someone would shoot and kill him.Police said Sunday just after 9 a.m., Davis was shot multiple times near a homeless encampment on Baldwin Street, near the Oakland Coliseum.Friend Tequilla Warner said she spoke to him the night before he was killed, never thinking that would be the last time.
Some friends said they became close with Davis when they attended and graduated from Oakland High School. "I want to have kids. I said is that right? I'm going to hold you to it," said friend Quan Bullock. Davis' family said they're frustrated with the lack of information from police and that they went to police headquarters Wednesday. "We're not looking for any type of revenge, just justice for my baby," said Clark.
"If anybody has any information, tell. Say something even if you do it anonymously. Say something," said Warner. His aunt said funeral arrangements are pending. Amber Lee is a reporter with KTVU.
