Suspect Arrested After Shooting at OPD Officer
The Oakland Police Department (OPD) is investigating an assault with a deadly weapon upon an officer.
On February 10, 2025, just before 12:30 a.m., officers were dispatched to the 6000 block of Seminary Avenue to investigate a multi-round ShotSpotter activation. At the same time, an OPD officer was investigating a separate incident.
While sitting inside their fully marked patrol vehicle, the officer heard gunshots and realized their vehicle had been struck by gunfire. It appears the officer may have been the target of the shooting. Thankfully, the officer was not physically injured.
This afternoon, a suspect was taken into custody thanks to the exceptional work of officers from OPD's Ceasefire Division and Special Resources Section (SRS) West,
