Potrero Hill, San Francisco

Officers were flagged down in the Potrero Hill Housing Projects by citizens that told them that they had just heard several shots in the area of Missouri and Watchman Way.  Officers who responded to the area found numerous bullet casings on the ground and cars and windows that had been shot.

A man came out of his unit and told the officers that he was the target of the shooting.  The victim had come out of his unit earlier and saw the three suspects standing near by.  The victim saw one of the suspects reach for a gun in his waistband and the victim ran back to his unit and stayed there until he knew that the police had arrived.

Two of the shooters have been identified and one is in custody.
