9 Injured In Mass Shooting In San Francisco's Mission District

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — Multiple people were injured Friday night in a mass shooting at a block party in San Francisco's Mission District, according to police and a report.

San Francisco police said they responded to a shooting near 24th Street and Treat Avenue shortly after 9 p.m. during a party hosted by a clothing store near the intersection of 24th Street and Treat Avenue.

Dying Breed, a clothing store located near the intersection where the shooting happened, was scheduled to celebrate its sixth anniversary Friday night with a block party, according to a post on the store’s Instagram account.

According to Deputy Chief Raj Vaswani, nine people were injured in the shooting, including seven men and one woman. Information for the ninth victim was unknown, Vaswani said.

Injuries ranged from minor to life-threatening, Vaswani said. All are expected to survive, according to police.

Authorities said the shooting appeared to be targeted.

A witness described the scene to CBS San Francisco. "We were on the roof, and we just saw blood, bodies on the floor. It was just a scary sight," Raymond Hou told the station. "It was funny because I was just there ten minutes ago, no problem, no worries."

No suspect is in custody, police said.

The Mission District is one of San Francisco's oldest neighborhoods, named after the Mission Dolores — a Spanish mission that dates back to 1776. Historically Latino and increasingly gentrifying in recent years, the vibrant area is home to numerous restaurants and shops.

Anyone with information, video or pictures of the shooting should contact the San Francisco police tip line at 415-575-4444.
