SFPD has sent out a “crime alert,” reporting that at 12:52 this morning, “an attempted Robbery occurred at the intersection of Richardson and Francisco Street.” From SFPD:
The victim was stopped at a red light when an unknown black male walked up to the driver’s side window and pointed a gun at the victim and demanded the victim’s vehicle.
