Innocent bystander killed in Oakland gas-station shooting

An innocent bystander was killed in a double shooting at a gas station over the weekend in Oakland. The victim's sister is speaking out after Rodney Davis, 64, was caught in the crossfire.

The argument happened at a gas station on 102nd Avenue and International Boulevard.
