After September 19th shooting on 24th and Balmy, three men that were were detained and released. The case has been officially turned over from the Mission Station to the San Francisco Police Department Gang Task Force.
“Two of those men might actually have been witnesses” said Sergeant Sid Sakarai, the lead investigator on the case. “But no one is cooperating, even the victim is not cooperating” he adds.
The case remains open and Gang Task Force is interviewing independent witnesses.
Fay Abuelgasim was surprised to find taquerias side by side with Senegalese, Chinese and Greek restaurants in the Mission. She thought they would only be Latin. The homeless people outside the 16th street BART station also amazed her. From Sudan, a war ravaged nation, she has seen poverty, but was not expecting so much in the United States.
