After gunfire broke out at a Mission District street party Friday night, many residents wonder how much their neighborhood and the city itself may be changing.
SAN FRANCISCO -- On Friday night, San Francisco's Mission District became the latest scene of mass gun violence. Nine people were shot on a sidewalk during a neighborhood block party. Police say they will likely all survive but, in the morning light, residents wondered how much their neighborhood -- and the city itself -- may be changing.
"It's confirmed that there are nine victims that were struck by gunfire and they are all expected to survive," said SFPD spokesperson Officer Eve Laokwansanthitaya. The victims were men ranging from 22 to 35 years old and one 19-year-old woman. Santiago Lerma, an aide to San Francisco supervisor Hillary Ronen, was in the area and said police told him the shooting may have stemmed from a previous argument during the city's celebration of Carnaval.
"I mean, I don't think it is reflective of the neighborhood. I think it's the most beautiful community. People are so kind here," Arum said."I'm not sure who did this or what happened exactly but I definitely don't feel like it reflects the character of the neighborhood in any way.""Well, nine people, that's a lot, of course," she said.
