3 injured in San Francisco nightclub shooting, police say
Police said they are investigating another shooting in San Francisco--this one near Balboa Park.
SAN FRANCISCO - Police in San Francisco are currently investigating two shootings that occurred over the weekend, resulting in a total of 12 people being sent to the hospital.
According to officials at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital, six out of the nine people who were shot on Friday night are still recovering and at least one person remains in critical condition.
The first shooting took place during a block party near the intersection of 24th and Treat streets in the Mission District on Friday night. The second shooting occurred inside a nightclub located on Ocean and San Jose, near Balboa Park, on Saturday night.
City leaders, concerned about the increasing frequency of violent crimes, expressed the need for action to prevent such incidents.
Ahsha Safai, the District 11 SF Supervisor, said more needs to be done to keep residents safe.
"It just goes to show that residents in San Francisco are not feeling safe," Safai said. "And we need to do everything to make prioritize and make public safety our No. 1 priority."
The shooting on Saturday night took place inside the Stratos Night Club, as captured by surveillance footage.
The footage shows the moment when people heard the gunshots and quickly started running away.
KTVU has learned that the club has been under scrutiny by the city's entertainment district since last September when another shooting occurred. As a result, the club was required to implement safety and security changes.
Police have not yet released any details regarding the suspects involved in either of the weekend shootings.
However, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, a person of interest named Javier Campos is being sought in connection with the mass shooting on Friday.
Campos has multiple warrants against him from various locations across the Bay Area, including a homicide case in Oakland.
Mission Skateboards was hosting a street party in a pop-up tent outside its storefront when Friday's shooting occurred. The party was a celebration for Dying Breed clothing company, which sells its items inside Mission Skateboards.
"It’s hard to make sense of something so senseless," Mission Skateboards wrote on Facebook. "We watched our friends and neighbors selflessly tend to the wounded without question. Our peers were the best and bravest of San Francisco that we could have hoped for, we will forever be honored to have them in our lives. Grateful everyone survived."
