On Aug. 5, 2022, Sacramento County sheriff’s deputies responded to a shooting at a house party where Shearer was found on the lawn with four gunshot wounds. He was taken to the hospital where he later died.Prosecutors said Coogler shot Shearer four times on the lawn outside the party. Despite surveillance video showing Coogler escaping, the case went without an arrest for 18 months.
