Deshaun Mays, aged 43, has been arrested and charged with the murder of 23-year-old Sir Jewel Brooks, stemming from a shooting during a brawl on May 23. Initially, a 45-year-old man was suspected but later cleared as the shooter after video evidence implicated Mays. The incident occurred in Oakland, and Brooks had a troubled past involving previous shooting experiences. Mays has prior convictions which prohibited him from legally possessing firearms, leading to multiple charges against him.
