OAKLAND — When authorities here announced last month they’d arrested a juvenile in the killing of a 46-year-old liquor store clerk, they omitted a shocking detail: the suspected murderer is only 13 years old.

The teen boy, an Oakland resident who turns 14 in July, has been charged with murder and attempted robbery in the Jan. 6 shooting of Alazzani, who was killed inside the Orlando Market on Linden Street in West Oakland, which his family owns. The boy has also been charged with robbing Jax Liquors in Oakland roughly 40 minutes later, authorities said.

The two robbers entered the Orlando Market a little after 8 p.m., the 13-year-old allegedly brandishing a firearm. When they got to the counter, the boy racked the gun and pointed it at Alazzani, who allegedly grabbed the barrel of the pistol and attempted to wrestle the gun away.“It’s shocking. He is not coming home anymore.

The 13-year-old boy is being prosecuted as a juvenile, which limits his possible term of confinement if convicted to no longer than his 25th birthday. That would be in 2036. Under a state law passed in 2018, anyone younger than 16 cannot be charged as an adult in California.
