The shooting, captured on video, occurred on the 6900 block of International Boulevard in East Oakland. Black accused 55-year-old Roger Johnson, of Hayward, of stepping on his shoe and showed Johnson the butt of an AR-style weapon he had at his waistband, which the defense said was meant to deter Johnson from escalating it into a fight. Instead, Johnson attempted to grab the gun and Black allegedly shot at Johnson during the fracas, killing Johnson's friend, 55-year-old James Stephens, according to court records.
