A downtown Oakland restaurant is planning on relocating after a Friday night shooting left two people injured. Chef Cleashaun Hill of Pierre Pierre, located in the Tribune Tower on 13th and Franklin, posted on GoFundMe that he is raising money to move to a “safer area.”
The shooting occurred during dinner service, shortly after 8 p.m. Friday. Oakland police told the Bay Area News Group that a 24-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman were hit by gunfire and driven to separate hospitals; they are in stable condition. Photos taken outside Pierre Pierre show bullet holes in the windows; a graphic Instagram video posted by Hill captured overturned tables, blood and caution tape in the restaurant’s dining room.
Pierre Pierre, which serves Southern cuisine, began in 2023, and Hill described it Saturday as “a sanctuary for Black excellence. A place where our people could gather, celebrate, dine, and dream in peace.” Because of the shooting, Hill is now looking to “relocate to a safer environment where our guests and staff can feel protected and free.”

Thank you very much and God bless you.
I understand that Chicago has some of the strictest gun control laws on the planet.
“Bay Area News Group”
BANG. Seriously?
LOLOLOL
Literally, apparently
What is printed on the tape? "Caution: Slippery When Wet?!"
Regards,
Hill sounds pretty slow on the uptake. He should have updated his description as follows:
"a sanctuary for Black gunmen. A place where our people could gather, celebrate, dine, and dodge bullets."Regards,
“Hill described it Saturday as “a sanctuary for Black excellence. A place where our people could gather, celebrate, dine, and dream in peace.”
Sounds like whitey need not call for reservations. None available.
Oakland is almost li k e newark or camden.
Seems about right.
Guess they will be moving to a white area, or better yet, an all Asian area, to celebrate that ‘black excellence.
GoFundMe.... When you want free money because you think you deserve it.
Any business you open, if you’re smart, is based on location.
Never forget he let some rapper skateboard in the WH, put his feet up on the Resolute Desk and let two married rappers sit in The Situation Room for kicks when he got in office. AND don’t forget the 767 that flew THROUGH NYC, freaking people out who thought it was another terrorist attack. Never did find out who did it.
Knew about the Resolute Desk and the NYC scare but not the others
He’s a real piece of work that guy
Makes me SICK. Such disrespect from the kenyan.

And I misspoke - it wasn’t a rapper skateboarding, it was a pro skateboarder.
You spelled Work wrong
Someone needs to let Cleashaun know it's not the location, it's the people in that location.
“Sounds like whitey need not call for reservations. None available.”
No need to check with Yogi & Boo-boo on this one since it was so clearly stated.
Raiders....Warriors....A’s.....Pierre Pierre......
——sanctuary for Black excellence——
Oxymoron
