Oakland woman arrested in killing of Army veteran at gas station

OAKLAND, Calif. - An Oakland woman was arrested and facing a murder charge for allegedly killing a bystander, an Army veteran, while exchanging gunfire with other people at a gas station in March.

Authorities arrested 21-year-old Tyja Braswell on Tuesday in Oakland. She is being held at Santa Rita Jail without bail.

Police Chief LeRonne Armstrong previously said the March 19 shooting was the result of a dispute between Braswell and two other people, later identified as Tamia Foster, 23, and Stavon Moore, 28.

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

During the argument, Foster allegedly went to her vehicle to retrieve a gun, which Moore allegedly took hold of. Court documents allege that Moore shot at Braswell, and she returned fire.
