Bizarre broad-daylight alleged robbery attempt on Valencia includes gunshot and baseball bat

Mission Local reports:

When the victim was down on the ground, the male suspect pulled out a gun. The victim then attempted to take the gun from the male suspect, at which point the female suspect attacked the victim. During the struggle, a shot was fired but no one was injured.

According to eyewitness accounts from workers at PicaPica Maize Kitchen, a crowd gathered around the scene and people attempted to help the victim. Two men reportedly emerged from a vehicle, and one beat the victim with a bat. Four police cars and one police motorbike then appeared at the scene.

Read on to see what happens once the action heads inside Four Barrel.

UPDATE: Some pics from the scene:

Beloved late-night bacon-wrapped chicken-and-waffle sandwich coming soon to Duc Loi Supermarket

The popular pop-up shop is called Soul Groove. They did their thing at the Corner until the the Corner went kaput. Now Eater SF delivers the good news:

Back in the day, Mission Street Food’s Mission Burger proved there was something magical about serving a tricked out Heston Blumenthal-style beef patty at the deli counter of an Asian supermarket. Now today Eater receives word that a new pop-up shall carry on the Duc Loi pop-up baton: the fried chicken and waffle sandwich makers of Soul Groove.

Read on.

Warm Leatherette post-punk dance party brings minimal synths and primitive dance floor antics to Sub-Mission tonight

Warm Leatherette used to take place in some other neighborhood, so they’re billing tonight’s party as their “Mission Migration.” Lucky us! Here’s the official data:

//////////Warm Leatherette travels on its maiden voyage to the Mission for our November edition at SUB/MIssion. As always, you’ll hear the dancier side of POST PUNK, MINIMAL SYNTH, COLD WAVE, ITALO and whatever else we may feel like playing.

//////////DJs Riegler, Justin, Dreamweapon, Nihar and Nary Guman will be spinning weird, infectious rarities and classics from the era when ice gripped the hearts of Europe’s disco-going youth.

//////////Why now? Why not?

RSVP and invite your friends, but not before listening to some choice post-punk cuts (courtesy of Warm Leatherette’s Facebook wall):

Some kind of shooting and/or other crime results in taped off streets from 24th and Potrero to 25th and Bryant

I’d call SFPD myself, but those guys can be bummers sometimes. Anybody know what’s going on?

(Thanks, Daroom.)

Biographical Info:

"I joked that living in the Mission would be the end of me. And there were nights where it felt like the case.

One night I went out with my friend Allan to the bar that no one goes to on 16th Street, where I lost half my drink and money on the dance floor. Later we skated down 16th to Evelyn Lee, where I fell off my board and landed on my head as the 22 bus sped past behind me. A sobering moment. At the bar, I sulked and nursed my wounds until Allan put on Amy Winehouse’s 'Valerie.' We danced, he dipped me, and I felt better."

— My pal Valerie, writing about life in the Mission
