The SFPD is on the lookout for an Asian male, possibly Filipino, after a shooting Sunday night that left one Daly City man dead and five people injured, outside the salsa club Cafe Cocomo in Dogpatch. The suspect fled the scene in a silver Range Rover with a grill on the front.

Well, this is horrifying. Police in Fairfield arrested a man who had let his mother's dead body lie on the kitchen floor for two years. The man's father didn't seem to understand what was going on, but the son said that his mother had fallen some time in 2003 and not moved since. When asked why he hadn't called for help, he had no answer. The man will be booked for elder abuse, and the father has been taken into Adult Protective Custody.

And a 75-year-old woman is recovering from a random knifing by the Berkeley Rose Garden. The woman and her husband were taking a walk in the early evening last week when a teenage girl and her friend grabbed her and slashed her throat with a kitchen knife. The knifing is not thought to be gang-related.
