Alleged North Oakland gang member accused of firing on police

Alleged gang member accused of firing on police: "Benny Ray Martin, 31, fired shots at a car near 58th and Genoa streets and then unleashed more gunfire at two police officers responding to the area at about 6:30 p.m. Saturday, said Officer Holly Joshi, an Oakland police spokeswoman.

The officers' car was hit, but they weren't injured and did not fire back, Joshi said.

Martin fled but was arrested in a car driven by parolee Anthony Perry, 20, of Oakland, Joshi said.

Both men were booked on suspicion of attempted murder. Perry is also being held on a parole violation. Both men are being held without bail.

Martin, an alleged North Oakland gang member, was released from federal prison three weeks ago after serving a four-year term for being a felon in possession of a firearm, court records show. Martin told police that he fired at officers because of unspecified personal issues and because he didn't want to go back to prison, Joshi said."
