Twentysomething Man Steals Cameras At Gunpoint

Police are seeking a suspect who stole cameras at gunpoint from a store in San Francisco’s Lower Nob Hill neighborhood on Wednesday afternoon.

The robbery was reported at about 3:30 p.m. in the 800 block of Sutter Street, which is near Jones Street. The suspect, believed to be in his 20s, entered the store and grabbed the cameras from a shelf, police said.
