A San Francisco Police Department spokesperson said officers responded at 3:25 a.m. to McAllister and Jones streets in the Tenderloin to a report of a person on the ground.
They found a male suffering from a gunshot wound.
According to footage and police audio communications posted to X by FriscoLive415, a 19-year-old male was thrown from a white Chrysler van and found on the ground, not breathing.

The victim was pushed out of the vehicle,” the police scanner audio said. “There’s a 19-year-old male, unconscious, not breathing, shot in the head.” The vehicle was described as having been seen “last on McAllister from Market.”
A spokesperson for the San Francisco Fire Department said paramedics transported an adult with life-threatening injuries to a trauma center. The victim died at the hospital, police said.
