Overview
- Alameda County prosecutors filed a murder charge with gun enhancements that could yield a 50‑years‑to‑life sentence if Cedric Irving Jr. is convicted.
- Irving, 27, is held without bail at Santa Rita Jail and is scheduled for arraignment Tuesday in Alameda County Superior Court.
- A probable cause declaration says Irving admitted to the shooting and acknowledged ownership of the firearm recovered during his arrest, which the DA said was registered to him.
- Investigators used campus, residential and transit video to identify a suspect before arresting Irving early Friday at a BART station and recovering a gun.
- Police describe the attack as a very targeted incident by someone who knew Beam but was not closely connected to him, and no public motive has been established.
