Victim ID'd in Fatal Oceanside Shooting

Oceanside police are investigating the possibility that Keiser and the suspect knew each other.

Oceanside police are asking the public to help track down a suspect wanted in a shooting last month that killed a man. 

Investigators are looking for the gunman who shot a 35-year-old man in front of 410 S. Freeman Street.

The victim, later identified as Brandon Keiser, was found lying on the sidewalk suffering from at least one gunshot wound. Witnesses told police they heard the sound of an argument, then three to five gunshots at approximately 10:05 p.m. Tuesday, March 22.

Several people tried to save him. However, he was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Detectives from the Crimes of Violence Unit do not believe it was a random act. They are investigating the possibility that Keiser and the suspect knew each other.

San Diego County Crime Stoppers is offering $1,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest in this case.

Anyone with information the identity or location of the possible suspect is asked to call the Oceanside Police Department’s Crime of Violence Unit at (760) 435-4872.
