OAKLAND (BCN) — A young woman testified today that she saw a reputed Oakland gang member holding a long gun at the scene of a double-murder in Oakland last January but said she didn’t see him pull the trigger.

On the witness stand at the preliminary hearing for 30-year-old Carlton Broussard, the woman, who asked that her name not be disclosed because of threats to her life, said Broussard got out of a blue car in the area of 10th and Willow Streets at about 5:30 p.m. on Jan. 20, 2015, and asked 29-year-old Marcus Sims and 22-year-old Donald Ward to get out of a gold van.

The woman, who was wearing a red sweatshirt with a “Gap” logo and said she had been standing at the gate to her grandmother’s residence, said Broussard said something to Sims and Ward but she couldn’t hear what it was.

She said she then heard some gunshots so she turned away and ran to her grandmother’s home nearby.

Broussard is charged with two counts of murder and the special circumstance of committing multiple murders for the shooting, in which Sims and Ward were slain.

Oakland police said Broussard fled Oakland after the shooting but was arrested in Middleburg, Fla., on March 21.Oakland police Officer Robert Rosin wrote in a probable cause

Oakland police Officer Robert Rosin wrote in a probable cause statement that witnesses identified Broussard as one of two suspects who shot and killed Sims and Ward.

But the second gunman in the case is still being sought by police.Rosin said that when Broussard was interviewed the day after he was arrested he confessed to shooting one of the victims, but Rosin didn’t specify which one.

In addition to the two murder counts and the multiple murder allegation, Broussard is charged with being an ex-felon in possession of a gun as well as second-degree robbery for a robbery at a smoke shop in Brentwood on Jan. 25, 2015, five days after the shooting.The robbery charge contains an enhancement clause alleging that Broussard participated in the crime to benefit a criminal street gang.

The robbery charge contains an enhancement clause alleging that Broussard participated in the crime to benefit a criminal street gang.

Damontae Warfield, 23, of Oakland and Jamilia Davis, 29, are also charged with second-degree robbery for the Jan. 25 incident.

In addition, Warfield is charged with unlawful firearm activity and two gang enhancement clauses for the Jan. 25 incident.

Prosecutors allege that Broussard has prior convictions for possession of a controlled substance with a firearm in January 2010, possession of a firearm by a felon in March 2006 and possession of drugs for sale in August 2005.

The woman who testified today said that in the past she dated Broussard for about five months. She also said she had gone to school with Ward and had known Sims a few months.

The woman said that a few days after the shooting Broussard told her in a phone call that he was sorry that she was receiving death threats because she was a witness to the shooting. But she said Broussard wasn’t among those making threats against her.

The woman said the threats caused her to move out of the state for several months after the shooting.

Sims was the older brother of Anthony Sims, 20, who is one of six young men charged with murder for the fatal shooting of Chyemil Pierce, a 30-year-old West Oakland mother who was struck by crossfire as she was trying to help two of her children to safety outside her home in the 2800 block of Chestnut Street at about 4:45 p.m. last March 9.

Pierce worked as a human resources specialist at Kaiser Permanente.

The shooting occurred after two groups of women got into a fight on Chestnut Street and two groups of men came to the scene and became involved in the confrontation.

On Monday, a judge tentatively scheduled the preliminary hearing in that case to begin on May 9.

Most of the defendants in that case appeared in court at a brief hearing on Monday but Anthony Sims didn’t appear because he’d been involved in a fight in a holding cell at the courthouse earlier in the day, court officials said.
