Officials in California commemorated journalist Chauncey Bailey, who was fatally shot in 2007, by naming a portion of a street in downtown Oakland in his honor.

During a ceremony on March 5, a plaque and street signs were unveiled to officially name 14th Street from Broadway Street to Lakeside Drive as “Chauncey Bailey Way.” This is the stretch of road that the journalist often walked to work on and was also the location of his tragic shooting.
