Marcos Mendoza-Canil, 33, was fatally shot on March 9, 2011, on the 1400 block of 92nd Avenue in East Oakland. His death came during a year marked by a sharp increase in homicides in the city and is described as part of the wider pattern of street violence affecting Oakland.

The area where Mendoza-Canil was killed has continued to struggle with violence. Law enforcement at the time reported difficulties solving many homicides from that period because of limited resources and a shortage of willing witnesses.

If anyone remembers hearing about or seeing anything related to the shooting on 92nd Avenue that day, law enforcement would welcome information.
