A San Francisco man says he’s lucky to be alive after someone yelled a homophobic slur at him and then shot him.
Etheridge called his husband from the ambulance to San Francisco General where he spent the next day and a half.Now bandaged up and on crutches, he’s thankful he’s alive and knows it could have been a lot worse than a gunshot and six weeks of rehab.
“I’m not going to complain about my situation after seeing what I’ve seen this week,” he said, referring to the deadly school shooting in Texas. “I’m just lucky to be alive.” Etheridge’s husband said the San Francisco Police Department’s special investigations division is handling the case and treating this as a hate crime.
