DA charges 3 in California freeway shooting that killed 23-month-old Jasper Wu

OAKLAND, California — The Alameda County District Attorney’s Office charged three alleged San Francisco gang members with multiple felonies Thursday after their arrests in connection with last year’s fatal shooting of a 23-month-old boy riding in a car on Interstate 880.

At a news conference at the Rene C. Davidson Courthouse, District Attorney Nancy O’Malley said that Trevor Green, Ivory Bivins and Johnny Jackson were each charged with murder, shooting at an uninhabited or unoccupied vehicle and possession of a firearm by a felon. Bivins and Green were also charged with conspiracy to commit a crime, and criminal street gang conspiracy, O’Malley said.

Around 2:15 p.m. Nov. 6, 2021, the boy, Fremont resident Jasper Wu, was riding in a car seat with family members in a Lexus sedan driven by his mother southbound on I-880 near Filbert Street when he was struck by a bullet. He was taken to UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, where he succumbed to his injury. Investigators who responded to the scene and spoke with witnesses and recovered evidence, and soon learned that a rolling gun-battle had happened between two vehicles in northbound I-880 lanes.
