What was he on parole for?
haven’t heard yet what he was in prison for.. but he wasn’t going back.
Don't know yet, but he was wanted:
"OAKLAND, Calif. -- Three Oakland police officers were killed, another gravely wounded and a suspect was slain in a gun battle with a SWAT team Saturday in two related shootings that have rocked the community, authorities said. . At an emotional Saturday evening press conference, Acting Oakland Police Chief Howard Jordan confirmed the deaths."

"The officers killed were identified by Jordan as Ervin Romans, 42, and Daniel Saki, 35. The gunman was identified as Lovell Mixon, 27, Oakland. He was wanted for a parole violation, Jordan said."
Assault with a deadly weapon. According to Oakland Tribune.
Another guy who should have been in prison, serving his full sentence, not out on parole. (But since he also had a warrant out, I suspect he also vioalted that parole).
