Oakland police released the identities of the two people shot and killed at EZ’s Lounge on 14th Street-33-year-old Latetia Bobo and 25-year-old Markise Martin.<\/p>\n

Five others were also struck by gunfire but survived. Oakland police said officers detained multiple individuals at the scene and recovered several firearms. A motive has not been released.<\/p>\n

A GoFundMe<\/a> was set up by Martin’s brother, Lawrence Mcgee, to pay for funeral expenses.<\/p>\n

Kalin Joshua Freeman, Bobo’s friend, told ABC7 Eyewitness News Reporter JR Stone that the news was hard to believe.<\/p>\n

“That’s horrible,” Freeman said. “It’s just unbelievable because she’s so kind. She’s a great teacher. She’s a great singer. She’s an artist and it’s not computing in my mind, like, why would somebody, why was she just in that situation to lose her life and everything?”<\/p>\n
