P. v. Banks CA3
Rashad Alexander, a member of a criminal street gang known as the Del Paso Heights Bloods (Heights), was sitting in the backseat of his car in the parking lot of a Sacramento strip mall in the early morning hours of March 12, 2011. A white car with four occupants, driven by defendant and appellant Abdul Rashid Tanko, a member of a rival gang known as the Strawberry Manor Gangsta Bloods (Manors), circled the parking lot. Moments later, defendants and appellants Herbert Antonio Alvarez, Arlonzo Jackson Banks, and Darnell Lee Williams, all members of Narf, a criminal street gang from Richmond, approached Alexander’s car. Following a brief exchange, guns were drawn and shots fired. When the dust settled, Alexander lay dead, having been shot 21 times.
