Killing of Alonzo Tucker
1902 lynching in Coos Bay, Oregon, United States
Alonzo Tucker was an African American boxer and owned a gym in Coos Bay, Oregon. He was accused by Mrs. Dennis of rape. Alonzo Tucker was then shot by two unidentified 12-year-old boys. Tucker succumbed to his injuries; the mob chasing him took his corpse and hanged it from the 7th Street Bridge. Dennis and her family quickly left town and headed to California.
