John Beam, the Laney College athletic director and former football coach who was featured in Netflix's "Last Chance U," was shot on campus Thursday, the second school-related shooting in Oakland in as many days, authorities said.
Beam died earlier Friday after a shooting on the Laney campus, where he was athletic director. A suspect, 27-year-old Cedric Irving Jr., is reportedly in custody and the authorities have described the attack as targeted, with the suspect and victim apparently knowing each other.
