OAKLAND \u2014 A man was charged with attempted murder and assault after police identified him as one of two people who shot a nightclub attendee five times in front of the business, court records show.<\/p>\n
Kearee Captain, 21, of Hercules, was also charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, due to a prior weapons conviction in Contra Costa, court records show. Police allege that on Dec. 21, 2025, at around 3:25 a.m., Captain and another man shot a patron outside a club in the 1800 block of Telegraph Avenue in Oakland.<\/p>\n
The victim told police that the two shooters seemed to have a problem with him, but he didn\u2019t recognize them or know why, according to police. Captain was identified from a witness who recognized him from Instagram, and who later identified him from a photo lineup, authorities said.<\/p>\n
Six days after the shooting, the vehicle that the shooters fled in was located in Jackson, Tennessee, being driven by a 20-year-old man who had a \u201clarge amount\u201d of cash, authorities said in court filings. The second shooter has not been charged. Police say they found ammunition in a search of Captain\u2019s Hercules home, and that he declined to provide a statement.<\/p>\n
Captain has been released from jail after a judge set bail at $250,000, and he is set to enter a plea on April 9, court records show.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"OAKLAND \u2014 A man was charged with attempted murder and assault after police identified him as one of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":253661,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[861,862,112557,143,112559,863,145,144,112558],"class_list":{"0":"post-253660","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-oakland","8":"tag-bay-area-crime","9":"tag-california-crime","10":"tag-nightclub-shooting","11":"tag-oakland","12":"tag-oakland-club-shooting","13":"tag-oakland-crime","14":"tag-oakland-headlines","15":"tag-oakland-news","16":"tag-telegraph-club-shooting"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253660","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=253660"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253660\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/253661"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=253660"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=253660"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=253660"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
