Three charged in Oakland home invasion, homicide; robbers allegedly forced their way into home, shot two

Two men were charged with murder, and a third man is facing attempted murder charges, court records show.

OAKLAND — Three people have been arrested and charged in connection with a Sept. 28 home invasion robbery and fatal shooting, court records show.

Stephen Head, 19, of Tracy, and Gregory Ignacio, 43, have been charged with murdering 29-year-old Daniel Lucero, while Dominick Glover, 18, has been charged with attempted murder for allegedly shooting a 26-year-old man who survived. All three also face robbery charges and are being held in Santa Rita Jail in Dublin without bail, court records show.

The shooting happened about 10:20 p.m. after a gunman burst into a home on the 1700 block of Church Street, stealing cash from Lucero. One robber, identified by police as Head, threatened to kill Lucero, and he ran from the residence. Two of the robbers — allegedly Head and Ignacio — shot and killed Lucero as he fled.

Moments later, Glover allegedly shot the second victim multiple times as he sat in his car.

Later that night, a woman cried out when she arrived at the scene.

“Oh my God,” she yelled. “I knew it was my son, I (expletive) knew it!”

She begged an officer for news on the victim’s condition, but he told her he didn’t know.

Weeks later, Head was allegedly “positively identified” as one of the people who shot Lucero, an Oakland police probable cause statement alleges without elaboration. The three are due in court Dec. 16 to enter a plea, according to court records.

Police have not disclosed how much money was stolen.

Lucero’s killing was the second within a half-hour that evening. About 20 minutes earlier, a 17-year-old boy was shot and killed in another part of town.
