Laney College Timely Notice to Campus - June 26, 2023

Dear Laney Community:

I am writing to inform the college community of a death that took place near the Laney campus over the weekend. Police on Saturday found a male who had been dead for an indeterminate amount of time in one of the vehicles on 8th Street. The Alameda County Sheriff’s determined the individual to be deceased, and per policy, no further information can be released at this time, though it can be confirmed that the individual in question was neither a student nor a Laney/Peralta employee.

Individuals having further questions may contact the Peralta Colleges’ Director of Public Safety or the Alameda County Sheriff Coroner’s Office.

Sincerely,

Rudy Besikof, Ed. D.

Laney College President
