15-year-old identified as victim killed in San Francisco shooting

The victim killed in a shooting in San Francisco Thursday night was a 15-year-old boy, police said.

Police said in earlier reports that the victim was an adult, but on Friday clarified that the victim was a teen.

The San Francisco Police Department said shortly before 7:30 p.m., a person was gunned down in the 1800 block of Eddy Street near Scott Street. The victim, who has not been named, was taken to a local hospital where he later died.

Authorities reportedly chased a possible suspect vehicle across the Bay Bridge but lost them once in Oakland.

SFPD remains at the scene and asks anyone with information to contact the department.
