OAKLAND — A 25-year-old woman was killed and a 33-year-old woman was injured Friday morning when gunfire erupted at an adult education campus in East Oakland, authorities said.

Both women were shot around 9 a.m. at the Parker Community Resource Center, 7929 Ney Avenue, according to Oakland police Chief James Beere. The 25-year-old woman was declared dead at the scene, while the other woman was taken to a hospital with a graze gunshot wound.

No arrests had been made by Friday evening, though Beere said that “there’s definitely people who have stepped up to help out, and I’m very confident we’ll be able to determine the reason and the people responsible.” He added that “this was not a random act — this was a very intentional crime.”

“This is a very tragic incident,” Beere said. “This is heartbreaking — heartbreaking for anyone, let alone the family.”

The campus houses the Oakland Adult & Career Education program overseen by the Oakland Unified School District, as well as Roots Community Health.

Summer classes had begun at the adult education program about a month ago, and both women were attending the same construction class when they were shot, according to authorities.

Authorities said the 25-year-old woman was shot outside the portable building where the class was being held, while the 33-year-old woman was inside and hit by a stray bullet.

Numerous circumstances surrounding the shooting remained unclear Friday.

Multiple people living nearby said they heard about a dozen shots — perhaps more — ring out sometime after 9 a.m. on Friday. One woman, Heidi Kelly-Tuason, initially dismissed the noise as fireworks until she heard sirens converging on the education center, which formerly housed Parker Elementary School.

Shortly afterward, Kelly-Tuason saw several officers rushing into a building on the center’s campus with their guns drawn. An ambulance was later seen rushing away from the scene.

About an hour and a half later, while peering over police tape blocking off the road in front of the campus, Kelly-Tuason lamented the violence that rattled the school and the surrounding neighborhood.

“It’s terrifying,” said Kelly-Tuason, while voicing concern for the people attending classes on the campus. “These are people just trying to improve their lives.”
