Police officers fired multiple shots “to neutralize the threat” of a man brandishing two firearms at the San Francisco International Airport’s International Terminal on Thursday morning, airport officials said. CPR was administered to the suspect, but he died from his injuries, officials said.

The incident occurred at approximately 7:30 am in front of the airport’s BART station entrance, airport spokesperson Doug Yakel said in an email statement. An airport employee alerted police to the man allegedly displaying suspicious behavior.

San Francisco Police Department officers initially tried to deescalate the situation using nonlethal measures, but the suspect continued “to advance,” Yakel said.

Also, a bystander in the area was injured in the gunfire, Yakel said. The person was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.

PLEASANTON (CBS SF) — A domestic violence call late Thursday morning at a Pleasanton apartment complex on the edge of the city’s Hacienda Business Park turned into an hours-long standoff between a man and police officers, eventually ending in the afternoon with an officer- involved shooting after the man exited the building armed with a knife.

Police said Thursday afternoon that the man was confirmed dead at the scene.

The incident began at 11:51 am when police received a call from a victim of domestic violence at 4899 Willow Rd. When officers arrived on the scene, they located the man who refused to come out of an apartment unit.

“We know the public wants to know more, which is why we’re moving quickly to gather the facts,” Pleasanton Police Lt. Erik Salacci said Thursday evening.

The suspect was barricaded inside a ground floor unit of The Galloway Apartments for several hours. Just after 3:30 pm, police officers were seen breaking a window, appearing to get ready to enter the unit. Moments later, as seen on a video taken by a neighbor, the suspect walked out of the apartment in front of officers. On the video, a shot is heard and the suspect turns toward an officer and appears to lunge as the officers open fire.

The neighbor who shot the video said a couple had recently moved into the apartment and the woman worked in the apartment complex leasing office.

“I was trying to make sure he was OK,” said neighbor Luis Castillo. “I heard he was crying over the phone and the other people, too, came out right away. That’s when I saw the commotion. There was people across the street, everyone was a little shaken by what happened.”

Speaking about the suspect, Castillo added: “I met him about a month ago. Usually I’ll walk my dog ​​and see him out with his girlfriend. He seemed like a nice guy.”

Another neighbor said that, after three-plus hours into the standoff, she heard flash-bang devices and saw police breaking the window before the man emerged and was shot.

Pleasanton police said the suspect came out of the apartment armed with a knife.

“Two officers were involved in that [officer-involved shooting] and are uninjured,” said police spokesman Lt. Eric Silacci. “We can confirm the suspect is deceased. We’re not releasing the officers’ names at this time. We are in the process of conducting our investigation. The Alameda County District Attorney’s Office is also on scene and conducting their investigation. We know the public wants to know more, which is why we’re moving quickly to gather facts.”

SAN FRANCISCO – Plainclothes police officers shot and injured a suspected car theft in San Francisco on Friday, authorities said.

Central Station officials were investigating a car break-in at around 12:50 p.m. when they found a suspicious vehicle occupied by at least three people on Varney Place near 3rd Street, the San Francisco Police Department said in a press release.

“There was a shooting in which a suspect was hit by an officer,” the police said.

According to police, the officers helped the suspect until the paramedics arrived and took him to a hospital. The suspect’s injuries were not classified as life-threatening, the police said.

The alleged vehicle left the scene with the other occupants, the police said.

The shooting is being investigated by the Independent Investigations Bureau of the San Francisco District Attorney, the SFPD Investigative Services Division, the SFPD Internal Affairs Division, and the Department of Police Accountability.

Anyone with information on the case can call SFPD’s 24-hour tip line at 415-575-4444 or write TIP411 and begin the message with SFPD. Tipsters can remain anonymous.

Police said Wednesday that they had arrested a man who repeatedly threatened an Asian American woman in a San Francisco bakery, in one case hand copying a gun and simulating people being shot in it.

Darrell Hunter, 45, was arrested Tuesday near the store in the Tenderloin neighborhood after the woman called police, officer Adam Lobsinger said in a statement.

The woman first called officers on Sunday when she accused Hunter of entering the bakery and threatening to “shoot Chinese people”. The woman told officers it was the third day in a row that Hunter entered the store and caused a disturbance. She said it was the first time she had called the police about the threat of violence, Lobsinger said.

She called the police again Tuesday after saying Hunter returned and used his hand to mimick a gun. Hunter had left the store when the officers arrived, but the police found him a few blocks away and arrested him.

The arrest comes amid an increase in violence against the Asian-American and Pacific islander communities, including several attacks in California. In an attack in San Francisco earlier that month that drew national attention, a man slapped 75-year-old Xiao Zhen Xie in the face, leaving her with two black eyes.

And in New York City, a suspect was arrested Wednesday after an Asian American woman was kicked and trampled in an attack on a surveillance video this week. Activists say Asian American parents and business owners fear their children or workplaces will be targeted, and many community members are afraid to go public.

In San Francisco, Hunter was jailed on suspicion of three criminal threats, two burglary, stalking, parole violation and hate crime enhancement. The police didn’t know if he had hired a lawyer to speak on his behalf.

Hunter has been suspended for vandalism after joining a company four times in two weeks in 2018, shouting racist nicknames and, in one case, damaging restaurant furniture.
