Authorities identified the man as Daren Seals, 29, though other records give the spelling of his first name as Darren. Police gave an address for Seals in the 9700 block of Millburn Drive in North County.
Seals was active in protests in Ferguson after the police shooting of Michael Brown in 2014.

It seems like more than just a random crime to me since the car was torched. I'll be watching to see if this is tied in to his activism.
Seals was extremely critical of Black Lives Matter activists like DeRay McKesson and Johnetta Elzie who he believed coopted the situation in Ferguson to their own benefit.
He had tried to warn local folks about DeRay and the other outsiders of the BLM because there was a lot of money coming into ‘the movement’, but it wasn’t getting to the local community.
He even called out the Soros connection:

Hopefully you will be watching to see if it was tied into any criminal activities also.. Torching of cars or other extreme crimes, acts of revenge are not uncommon in the criminal world.
Do you know something about the deceased?

My only question is why would you assume this has something to do with a protest he did 2 years ago? Im pretty sure even the police aren't looking at that as a motive it's kind of silly. If someone took thr time to shoot him and torch his car that personal. Either thr car was torched to cover up evidence or that was thr start of the confrontation which lead to his death. Either way there was alot of hate involved meaning thus was someone who knew him Personly not the act of a stranger.
