Early Thursday morning, a shooting in the Outer Mission along Alemany prompted a standoff with the SWAT team. According to SF Appeal, here's what went down first:
Responding officers located a man in his 30s suffering from a gunshot wound to his leg in the area of Alemany Boulevard and Farragut Avenue at about 3:10 a.m., Sgt. Eric O’Neal said.The victim was transported to San Francisco General Hospital and is expected to survive, according to O’Neal.
The suspect didn't flee far from the scene. KTVU has more:
SWAT officers had surrounded a recreational vehicle in the area of Alemany Boulevard and Farragut Avenue in the pre-dawn hours after the suspect was tracked there from a nearby shooting scene.The suspect was eventually talked into surrendering peacefully by an officer during cell phone conversations.
Whew.
