SFPD investigate a shooting in the Mission.
A peaceful and cool night outside and a joyful dancing event inside were interrupted on Wednesday, Feb. 3, when two African American men started a brawl at a local night club near Mission and 22nd St. at approximately 1 a.m. After they were removed from the club by security guards, the issue didn’t end there, one of the individuals pulled a gun and shot the other in a leg, according to witnesses.
While the wounded man was taken to the hospital, the police cordoned the area of 22nd and Capp to Bartlett streets, and on Mission from 22nd to 23er Street, searching for the bullet shell and questioning witness who gave vague accounts of the incident (see photo above).
According to Mission Police Station’s officer Ortega, the suspect was still at large. A woman in handcuffs was questioned. A couple of Muni buses remained unmoving as the street was closed with police yellow tape for approximately one and half hour.
