SFPD Arrests Two Suspects for Northern District Homicide #26-009(a)
On January 30, 2026, at approximately 5:13 p.m. San Francisco Police officers from several districts and investigative units responded to Golden Gate Ave. and Laguna St. regarding a shooting. Officers arrived on scene and discovered three juvenile victims suffering from gunshot wounds. Officers rendered aid, and medics arrived on scene and transported the victims to the hospital. One of the victims suffered life-threatening injuries, and the other victims suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
Despite the lifesaving efforts of medical staff, a juvenile female victim succumbed to her injuries and was declared deceased in the hospital.
Investigators from the SFPD Homicide Detail responded to the scene and are leading the investigation. Through the course of the investigation, officers identified and located two suspects.
On February 2, 2026, investigators developed probable cause to arrest a 16-year-old and a 15-year-old suspect for the shooting. Both suspects were booked into the Juvenile Justice Center for homicide (187(a) PC). Due to the suspects' ages, their identities will not be released.
While arrests have been made, this is an open and active investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact the SFPD at 1-415-575-4444 or Text-A-Tip to TIP411 and begin the message with SFPD.
