Murder at 21st and Bartlett yesterday

20131015-091936.jpg

From Mission Local:

A man was shot and killed at 21st and Bartlett streets at 4:30 a.m. on Monday. The police had closed off the area surrounding the shooting, with the block of Bartlett between 21st and 22nd still closed at 8:30 a.m.

I took this photo yesterday morning as I was biking by on my way to work, and due to being late did not have time to stop and ask any of the officers what was going on.  Nonetheless, I posted this photo this morning along with a tasteless joke.  I apologize to the families and neighbors of all affected by this incident, and will do a much better job in the future of finding out all the facts and employing the appropriate tact.

    You know that a man was gunned down and murdered on Bartlett St, right? It was pretty horrific and not exactly joke worthy…

    Since when is giving a shit about the community considered troll-like behavior? I live on that block and it was a traumatic experience for the neighborhood.
    Fuck off.

    Good edit, Andrew. Also from ML, sounds like they’ve already made an arrest:

    Thanks for the edit, Andrew. It’s comforting (amazing?) they apprehended the murderer; hope they have enough evidence to stick a conviction…

    Sounds like the victim and the shooter were housemates: http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Mission-shooting-victim-suspect-were-housemates-4897159.php
