Third suspect arrested in killing of man during laptop...

Oakland police have arrested the third person in connection to killing of a 34-year-old physics specialist while stealing his laptop at a Starbucks coffee shop in Oakland in December, police said Friday.

Police on Monday identified the suspect as 18-year-old Kejuan Wiggins. Alameda County prosecutors have charged him with murder and second-degree robbery, including several special allegations.

The arrest comes weeks after two men were charged in the killing of Shuo Zeng, of Oakland.

Byron O.J. Reed Jr., 22, and Javon Eugene Lee, 21, were charged in early January. Reed faces a count of murder in the course of robbery, and Lee faces a count of involuntary manslaughter. Both are charged with second-degree robbery in addition to several special allegations.

In court documents, prosecutors and police say two people snatched a laptop from Zeng, who had been at the Starbucks on the 2000 block of Mountain Boulevard on December 31, 2019.

Zeng chased the robbers outside, where a getaway vehicle was waiting, officials said. Reed drove the getaway car, and Lee was positively identified on surveillance video while taking the laptop, according to investigators.

At some point during the altercation, Zeng was hit by the vehicle and taken to the hospital, where he died.
