San Francisco police early Friday shot and killed a man who was suspected of driving his car into two pedestrians and a bicyclist on a sidewalk near Union Square hours earlier, authorities said.
The man was believed to be a security guard in front of the Dior store at Grant and Post streets, acting SFPD Chief David Lazar said at a news conference near the scene on Friday morning. At least 10 bullet holes pockmarked the store’s window.
Around 6:30 p.m. Thursday, police got reports of a driver speeding and driving recklessly on the sidewalk in the area of Kearny and Post streets, Lazar said. The driver, who appeared to be chasing a person on a bicycle, struck and injured an 18-year-old woman and a 17-year-old girl who were coming out of a Chipotle restaurant, Lazar said. The suspect continued to chase after the man riding an e-bike.
