-- On Saturday Friday at around 10:40 p.m., Jan. 26, 24-year-old Ernesto Williams was shot and killed while standing outside his car at the Chevron station at Sixth and Harrison streets. While waiting with his 26-year-old girlfriend, police claim a suspect drove up to the couple, exited his vehicle, and then "approached the victims and started shooting," killing the Oakland man and wounding his female companion. The suspect then "returned to the vehicle and......

-- Really? At Union Square? Where we sit and enjoy our Border's-bought cream cheese stuffed pretzel? Let's back up a bit: according to SF Crime, a 16-year-old boy was shot while kicking it in the Union Square area at around 9:30 p.m. on Friday night. "A bullet struck the teen in the ankle and he was transported to San Francisco General Hospital in stable condition" just 30 minutes after SFPD responded to yet another......

UPDATE: according to one eyewitness who went to the police station after the drive-by to make a report, "all of the gunshot victims died."

This morning at around 3:20 a.m., smack-dab in our old neighborhood of 23rd Street and Treat, SFPD found four gunshot victims, one of whom was pronounced dead at SF General Hospital. "Police have no suspect information in that shooting." Yet. So start singing, witnesses. ...

-- "The Crib": Shitty City Nights' only decent club night, the one where you're not called a "faggot" if you happen to be walking outside of it (i.e., on Friday and Saturday nights). Why? Because tonight's for the homos. Hip hop, Top 40, and club hits abound at this popular 18-and-over twink night. Tonight's theme: Messy Britney. Do your best sloppy Britney Spears tribute on stage, and win a bag of crystal meth, or......

Documentaries about San Francisco are always our favorite type of anything. So we bundled up for the outdoor screening of the Madcat Int'l Women's Film Festival's City Nights program at El Rio, which features one long documentary and five shorts about SF. Before the movies started, fest director Ariella Ben-Dov (or at least we think that's who it was -- we missed the intro) warned everyone that if it rained, we'd either need to help the techs cover up all the equipment with tarps, or at least get out of the way. But the rain never got to the lower Mission and the movies spooled out unscathed. After the jump: cemeteries, our failed yvesdropping attempt (how does SFist MattyMatt do it?), and -- hey! that's our street!...
