SFPD Arrests Central District Homicide Suspect 25-061(a)

On May 14, 2025, at approximately 1:11 p.m., San Francisco Police officers responded to the area of Columbus Avenue and Northpoint Street regarding a shooting. While en route, officers learned that an unknown male subject was inside his vehicle when he shot at another occupied vehicle and immediately fled from the area. Officers arrived on the scene and canvassed the area for any victims, suspects, and witnesses. While officers were conducting their preliminary investigation, officers learned that the suspect turned himself in at the SFPD Central Station. Officers developed probable cause and placed the suspect, 44-year-old male Abraham Torres, under arrest. 

Officers searching the area located a victim vehicle matching the description they were given parked in the area of Leavenworth and Beach Streets. When officers approached the vehicle, they observed an unresponsive male suffering from gunshot wounds in the driver’s seat. Officers began rendering aid, including cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Paramedics responded to the scene and rendered aid as well. Despite life-saving efforts by first responders and medical personnel, the victim was pronounced deceased at the scene.
