In the Tenderloin on Saturday night, three men were heatedly arguing in an apartment building over on the 400 block of Jones Street (at Ellis). During the fight, one man died after he suspiciously fell down an elevator shaft, landing on an elevator car several floor sbelow. So far the details are sketchy. Although the deceased is still unidentified (as well as the two men arrested in connection), he's described as being "in his 40s."

Don't most elevator doors have locking mechanisms for when the car is on another level? Seems like these things should be checked more closely, especially in the older buildings in the TL.

Anyway, SFPD have declined to give additional details about the gruesome and unfortunate incident. We'll update you with more info as it comes in.
