Police release footage, seek suspect in deadly 2025 East Oakland shooting

Police in Oakland have released surveillance footage as they search for a suspect in a deadly shooting in East Oakland late last year.

On Nov. 26, 2025, officers were called to the 1700 block of 28th Avenue, between East 17th Street and Foothill Boulevard, following a ShotSpotter activation. Officers found the victim, identified as Terrill Millhouse, on the sidewalk with a gunshot wound.

Police and paramedics provided first aid to Millhouse, who was transported to a local hospital and later died.

According to officers, Millhouse was walking in the neighborhood before the shooting when an unknown person approached him.
