Woman, 27, Shot And Killed By Police In San Francisco
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Authorities say a 27-year-old woman was shot and killed by San Francisco police Thursday morning in the Bayview district.
The woman was taken to San Francisco General Hospital, where she died. Her name was not released.
The shooting happened at Industrial Street and Shafter Avenue.
No officers were injured.
Police Chief Greg Suhr says the woman was driving a stolen car and refused officer's commands to stop the car. Officers approached her on foot and she drove away. She was then shot by police.
Other details were not immediately available.
The shooting happened in the same neighborhood where Mario Woods was killed when an officer shot him on Dec. 2. That shooting enraged groups of activists and community leaders, prompting calls to fire Suhr.
