On Saturday, July 16th, the San Francisco Police shot and killed an unarmed 19 year-old man for allegedly not paying his Muni train fare. Witnesses say the shooting happened after the suspect de-boarded the T-Third Muni train and was confronted by police for not having a ticket. A chase ensued and the suspect was shot at six to ten times. People who gathered at the Muni stop were throwing bottles at police, who had three blocks of Third Street blocked off, from Palou to Newcomb avenues. Initial reports showed that the man was shot in the back and there was no weapon to be found, however Sunday, the San Francisco police claimed that they had "found" a silver handgun on the scene likely in order to stave off another Rodney King type riot in the streets of California.

graphic videos here... warning, lots of blood at the scene, man still alive at the beginning...

Other reports indicate he shot at the police then turned and ran. He was wanted on a felony warrant and that is likely why he ran.

i haven't seen those reports... the witnesses are saying different, and there are a lot of people in that video, and no weapon in that video either...

maybe he was wanted for a felony warrant, but that was not the reason they were chasing and shooting him...
