"A shooting Tuesday evening in an industrial section of San Francisco left four people with gunshot wounds, and a subsequent incident a short distance away involving a man with a gun led to an arrest. The shooting took place around 5:48 pm on the 1500 block of Burke Avenue, as KPIX reports. Police arrived on the scene and found a single victim suffering from a gunshot wound who was subsequently transported to the hospital."
"Police arrested that suspect, and as the Chronicle reports, police have declined so far to link the two incidents. A Bayview community leader, Theo Ellington, tells the paper that the neighborhood continues to feel neglected by city leadership. "We live in this neighborhood every day, and we see the social ills and we live them,Ellington tells the paper. "Other neighborhoods have public-safety liaisons and ambassadors we don't even have beat officers walking our corridor. We're all understaffed and under-resourced.""
